Snap 3 or 4 chalk lines from weld seam to weld seam across the
end cap (keeping it centered as closely as possible); where all
the lines join is the center of your end cap.

As Richard G. said: "Make sure you fill it with water before
you weld on it." - Even old, long empty Propane tanks still
have Propane trapped in the pores of the metal, which can be
ignited by welding on the tank - so make certain that your tank
is COMPLETELY FULL of Water.
