Default holding tank dump valve

I mounted the dump valve to the holding tank. I changed my design a bit so I could remove the valve without breaking the seal to the tank. I made a stainless plate that screws to the bottom of the tank and the valve bolts to the plate. The pictures show from left to right the 3M 5200 marine sealant, the mounting plate, a plastic ring I made to keep the rubber seal round, the upper seal, the valve, the lower seal and the flange to mount the drain hose to. It all went together pretty good. I will wait several days for the sealant to cure before I do any leak test. Next up is to buid a fresh water tank out of an old fuel tank.
