Thats why I love 8-wide...  I've been fooling with the 2x4x4 half round
panels lately.  By putting a 1 stud center between them, like in the truck
in set #6562 < http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6562 >, you get an oval tank
thats 5-wide.  I'm actully building a gas trailer for semi's, but the idea
is the same.
