Darren,
That's an interesting proportion, any reason you want such a narrow tank - is fitting it in a problem?
The reason I ask - 120 quid will buy you a ready-made aluminium alloy one with fittings fitted, and the separator plate already in place, no need to cut-n-shut, or worry about leaky flanges or other medical issues...
If you're absolutely set on DIY'ing a S/S one, you'd be welcome to swing by my place to use the TIG welder, I've got a bunch of stainless rods, again that'll save you the hassle of fabricating fittings, finding o-rings, etc.
If you do go down the fittings route, Ausdier's design would be my first choice - I guess the only difficulty comes back to welding stainless...
