As soon as the metal sheet is cut into the shapes required, numerous pieces are bent in order to make the basic shell and or the ends and baffles used for the fuel tank.

In aircraft and racecars, the baffles have "lightening" holes, which are flanged holes that provide strength to the baffles, while likewise reducing the tank's weight. Openings are added toward the ends of construction for the fuel pickup, the filler neck, the fluid-level sending unit and the drain. Every now and then these holes are added as soon as the fabrication process is complete, other times they are made on the flat shell.

The ends and the baffles are afterward riveted in place. Frequently, the rivet heads are soldered or brazed in order to prevent tank leakage. Ends could afterward be hemmed in and flanged and brazed, or soldered, or sealed using an epoxy type of sealant, or the ends can even be flanged and after that welded. After the brazing, welding and soldering has been completed, the fuel tank is tested for leaks.
