Hey guys,

I saw this picture from a link in one of the other threads going and I just love this resivour. Kinda like the Inovatek tank-o-matic only with larger fittings and everything.

I checked out US Plastics and McMaster for clear PVC which is what Im assuming its made from...and it seems they require you to buy 10' and 8' minimum respectivly. Honestly I really dont need 8' + feet of the stuff, a foot would be plenty. Im wondering if anyone knows of a source I where I could get it in smaller quantities?

Not sure on size yet, Im thinking at least 1 - 1/2" maybe 2" depending on cost.

Would some type of acrylic hollow rod work as well like they sell at www.mcmaster.com ? Not sure if you can drill into that. But you can buy it in smaller sections.

Anyone know what kind of brackets those are in the picture? Im still trying to figure out how I would attach it to my Lian Li Case.

Last question for installing barbs into these, would I just drill a hole slightly smaller than the threads and screw it in using some goop or epoxy?

Thanks guys, sorry for all the questions.
