LMAO!

that would be hilarious. :laugh:

CyberDruid · Mar 21, 2009

Sorry I've never built a reservoir that sucked...

MoonPig · Mar 21, 2009

Wow, that looks so clean.

I'm with Alex, you need to setup a pricing list and I'm sure people will buy, i know i will.

alexp999 · Mar 21, 2009

I'd like one of his waterfall reservoirs

MoonPig · Mar 21, 2009

I'd like a basic cylinder one, with a neon strip. Reservoirs cost alot for what they are, over here.

alexp999 · Mar 21, 2009

A smaller cylindrical one with a 4" cathode might interest me, though it would prob need to be designed so you can change the cathode.

MoonPig · Mar 21, 2009

yea, like a screw off lid, so you can swap it. But, yea, i'd defiantly buy a small one if you can sell it for under £25.

Oh, and it'd have to have both the ports at one end.

"That's not my bag, baby."

BTW - where do you get the materials - like the cylinder? Also wondering if you knocked down flat the areas around the ports for a good seal with the G1/4 fittings?

CyberDruid · Mar 21, 2009

Yeah it dffo needs to be servicable CCL lights do not last forever...I am going to make one of those. I have some 4" diameter UV green tube that needs a try...

I'm not likely going to make any box-type reservoirs if I can help it...they are a real PITA and I have had some issues where people put alcohol laced dyes or fluids in them and they start to craze from the edges...I've tossed more of them (cosmetic defects) than I've sold and had to replace a couple of them for free so it's not an attractive project...

Tubes however have only two glue joints so I feel there is far less trouble getting those joints perfect and nice looking. Box triple waterfalls have 48 edges...and toward the end of construction some of them are not so easy to fuse neatly...and each edge has to be sanded dead flat, each corner has to be dead 90 degrees, every dimension has to be withn 1/64th of an inch...etc...a frigging nightmare TBH.

MoonPig · Mar 21, 2009

you willing to build to designs, then ship to the UK?

Thats cool. Im starting to like the idea of a small 4" rez with cathode anyway. I just thought the waterfall rez's look really cool.

SystemViper · Mar 21, 2009

i love to get one like you got there....

US Plastics (not cheap BTW) and yes of course I made flats for the O-rings... :slap:

Sure. Shipping to the UK is really not that high if I use First Class. But there is no tracking or insurance either...

I agree...that's why I tried to make them on a production level but it turned into a real mess...I had a sheet cut into parts by a laser cutter and every God Damn edge was off...none of the dimensions were exact, the angles were not 90 degree...so I ended up hand dressing every part anyway. I takes me about 6 hours to assemble one reservoir and no one wants to pay my time ($30 per hour)..that Skull res is a $225 reservoir...and was considerably less work than a waterfall...

We can do this

So I do not run afoul of any rules or regulations concerning trade here on the Forum I suggest contacting me privately if you would like to commission some work.

This is what I do for a living guys...seriously...all I do is invent and build stuff for PC enthusiasts.

And very good at it, I must say.

But of course... :rolleyes:

I bought all of my custom connections for my Koolance case 6 years ago from USPlastics, and also recently for my new build, including Tygon - those guys have everything it seems. Yea, a little pricey if not buying in bulk. Cheers.

CyberDruid · Mar 22, 2009

Yep before there was Bitspower there was always poly fittings...I finally got rid of my stash last year...now you can find all those nice Delrin blocks tapped G-1/4

Cold Storm · Mar 22, 2009

CD, I gotta say, that it's... Man, every time I look at it... Man, how could a part like that make me lose my thoughts!!!

:toast:
