    Its exactly because of the limitations of the very few decent commercially made reservoirs that are readily available that I started some time ago making my own.

    The current res design I'm using goes to a fillport at the top of the case, and it bleeds very well. It is made out of all 1/4" case acrylic using IPS Weld on #3. I pressure tested it on my kitchen sink faucet (about 50psi give or take). It is solid. Thanks to Dennis at Dangerden I got this great beveled globe laser etched into the front. It really adds a nice touch to my case.

    agree the globe looks great, but the case a bit like an old church gate
