Got the tank out. Needed to remove compartment door, frame. Nothing seemed to be holding it in, except some stickey goo, from the tape someone put over the 2, 3" cracks.
Welding rod arrived today. some more practice, welding a recycle container, and I will attack the tank.
The bay, the tank slides into, goes under the kitchen floor, which seems to have a bit of flex. The bay is about 36" wide. No wonder the floor moves a bit!
There is about 4" of room on each side of the tank.
I'm thinking of cutting a couple of 2x8's down to slide in on each side of the tank, for floor support.
