Homemade gas tank?

Seen this on Craig’s List.
Is this a homemade gas tank? If so, it looks like a nice job.

Impressive work by a skilled person…a tinsmith maybe?

I remember the square tank you made. You think a round tank could be harder, easier, or about the same? 

A "Boathouse Repair" is one that done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Tubs, I would think the round tank would be harder because of
the flanges. Bending one continuous flange on an arc probably
is beyond my level. Making it in segments may be okay, but
more chances for leaks?
