Hi all!
I'm nearing the last leg of my water cooling mods! I just got to get the reservoir constructed! This is what I have:

A marine juction box (about 4x4x2)
2 1/2" hose barbs (1/2" threaded)
1 threaded 1.5" plug

questions:
1) Is there any special kind of drill bit or hole saw that can create a threaded hole? If so, where can I get?
2) The plug is the fill cap, so should I use teflon tape on the threads, just use a rubber oring, or both?
3) Is it excessive to use PVC glue to secure the lid and then use plumbers goop along the inside seam and outside seam?

That's about it. Thanks for any replies!
