Cheap/Easy WVO tank? Any ideas?

I've considered making the main #2 Diesel tank my WVO blend tank and using a small boat fuel tank as the Startup/Shutdown straight diesel tank.

I'm still considering that. But curious if anyone has any simple/cheap ideas for a Veg Oil fuel tank?

I tried an Ag. spray tank a while back and it sloshed around too much (no baffles), about every sharp turn and I'd get a sputtery engine if below half a tank.

Curious if anyone has some insight.
