Farmer converts Top Gun fuel tank into home water heater

A resourceful Chinese farmer has converted a salvaged Top Gun fighter plane fuel tank into a 400-litre water heater. Thanks to a solar panel and simple thermostat, agricultural worker Feng Wang, now has enough hot water to bath his family of six. A fan of all-things-military, Wang picked up the tank from a local recycling site after scraping together some loose change. It was only later that he came up with the idea to turn the silver steel tank into a heater for his home in Yantai city, in east China's Shandong province. link
