Custom Reservior

stereosteve99 · 09-05-02, 10:29 PM

I got this idea from EroyCarbon.
I was thinking how I could make a reservior which would fit in a 3.5'' bay. The only thing I can think of is just gluing plexiglass together to make a rectangular box. Is this doable? Would an epoxy be enough to hold this together?

hold what together?

seems like a good idea to me... as long as you have space enough to fit it.

yah and if you added the room or thickness to the walls you could make it so that it could be screwed into the bays

Sweet sweet! I'm glad that it is a possible design. This will be my first project.

BTW: if I were to buy all my parts for the watercooling system separate, do most all components use 3/8'' fittings?

I made one of these, only mine was designed for 2 5.25" drive bays.

With hose barbs, check out the components you want to buy before putting them in. Different products have different diameters. But it is either 1.2" or 3/8", you may need to convert some of the barbs if you get mismatched diameters
