Good point Andy. I don't know if the modern bladder 
pressure tanks are galvy but it makes sense they would 
be.

I don't recommend anyone expose themselves to zinc 
smoke unnecessarily but it isn't the danger it's 
reputation claims. There are also safe ways to remove 
the galvy like a vinegar soak.

Still, galvy's another point in favor of something else 
for a forge shell.

it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
