You can see if Steve still has some available:

Also, Steve-0 here on the forum was making them, not sure if he ever completed the project though.  I can't seem to find the thread...

Be careful if you get an old tank, not to use self sealers.  The ones with the rubber inside. DO NOT use those. Make sure they are steel inside. From what I've seen most old tanks are so ratty that you really don't want to use them.
