Freestanding Cylinder Reservoir

CyberDruid · Mar 20, 2009

I credit Paulieg for the dimensions and port locations.

Whaddaya think?

I have shots of the build process...if anyone is interested

Sean8 · Mar 20, 2009

nice, post the progress pics

CyberDruid · Mar 20, 2009

As you wish :toast:

Optical Clarity Cast Acrylic from US Plastic

Holesaw will make a mess of the acrylic and put a hole in the center which I do not want

However it goes through particle board like a dream...

And particle board will make a good template for the router :up:

But I don't want the router to work too hard so a quick trim...

A shot of 777

And onto the bevel bit.

This will get sanded while attached to the template.

Then popped off

and cleaned

and polished on the wheel.

A quick look before I tape up the tube.

Another template for the top

You know the drill...tapped to G-1/4

squirt

route

polish

And glued up.

Letting it cure before leak testing.

Wow, that is a big reservior. What is the expected capacity?

Awesome craftsmanship. 10/10!! (unless it leaks - lol)

Not only is that sexy looking, but I see two BNIB 9800GX2s in the last picture. This piques my interest. What build is this you're working on?

cdawall · Mar 20, 2009

very cool looking would look sweet with some blood red water in it

kyle2020 · Mar 20, 2009

excellent craftmanship, your acrylic skills are amazing.

alexp999 · Mar 20, 2009

I tell you what would be really amazing.

That, but with another smaller tube inside to take a 12" cathode

Amazing work CyberDruid. :toast:

Sasqui · Mar 20, 2009

Too cool and thanks for the build pics!

What did you use to glue the flats to the cylinder, and how'd you get such a nice polish?

Icewind31 · Mar 20, 2009

Looks great, I'm curious on your method on tapping acrylic? Thanks!

CyberDruid · Mar 20, 2009

Muahahahahaha got your interest peaked now

Hey I like the tube in the tube idea a lot. I'm going to do that when I get some time.

Been setting up the 9800GX2s on the DFI X48 board (Folding) and they are sweeeeeeeeet.

Just imagine setting up your WC system with UV reactive coolant, and having a 12" UV cathode backlighting the cylindrical res.

Or any colour watered with the approriate backlight.

: passes out :

CyberDruid · Mar 20, 2009

I think Fitseries needs at least two of them

alexp999 · Mar 20, 2009

Do you make custom resevoirs for people. As and when I go WC, I'd love to commission you to make me one.

CyberDruid · Mar 20, 2009

I have and probably will again

alexp999 · Mar 20, 2009

I'd donate my 12" UV cathodes for the experiment, but it is prob cheaper for you to buy them yourself than, shipping from UK.

SystemViper · Mar 20, 2009

Great stuff CD, I was looking at yoru skull resi and watched the vid last night, then i saw you had more vids and watched most of them while i just zoned, i am very impressed with your work, i have seen a lot of your stuff the last few years but the vids were cool. There were a few that had some great Blues/tunes. Got to give props where they are deserved. Top NOtch work! :respect:

Sorry lol I use acrylic cement (a solvent really) and a capillary applicator and it fuses the acrylic together.

h3llb3nd4 · Mar 20, 2009

is it the same as Polly-Weld?

Fitseries3 · Mar 20, 2009

where did you get your G1/4 tap? mcmaster? damn things are $17 when i find them.

looks good man.

PaulieG · Mar 20, 2009

It's all mine....thanks CD.

Binge · Mar 20, 2009

Have you tested it to see how well it'll bleed a system?
