A fluid vessel assembly is provided with a first vessel body with a first mating surface with a first plurality of generally planar nonparallel regions. The first vessel body forms a first portion of a fluid cavity. A second vessel body is provided with a second mating surface with a second plurality of generally planar nonparallel regions sized to engage the first mating surface. The second vessel body forms a second portion of the fluid cavity. The first mating surface and the second mating surface are friction stir welded together. The fluid vessel assembly does not include any threaded fasteners attaching the first vessel body to the second vessel body and does not include an additional gasket associated with the first mating surface or associated with the second mating surface between the first vessel body and the second vessel body.
