this might sound stupid but the T-Line i ordered from danger den didn't come with a cap so where could i get one? thanks ahead of time
 
well HomeDepot has some brass fitting with a cap. Just go there and ask a sale person there that you need a 1/2" ID brass fitting with cap. It cost ~ $3-$4.
 
I've tried the brass ones and they tend to make the tubing flop over from the weight. I bought a nylon hose barb that had one end threaded. I then searched around until I found a screw cap off a bottle that fit it. Use your imagination. There's plenty of candidates just around the house. I wound up using a cap from one of my wifes perfume bottles. It took a lot of washing to get the stink out of it first though. :)

I believe (I could be wrong) that Homedepot also has plastic 1/2" end caps too (could swear Ive seen em).
 
if you dont mind forking out some extra cash DD has a really nice cap or fill port that can be mounted on the top of your case. i think its like 14 bucks tho.

Yup man i'm using one however their plastic is ugly and the thread for the cap is big. Its damn cheap tho. less than a $1 with cap.
 
Is it that like rotten egg grey color? They had some elbows Y fitting that were that gawd awful color.
 
Ever see those obnoxious "How do YOU use your Sharpie?" commercials?

Guess how I use mine? :D

I have a couple of systems with pen caps or even the whole pen capping the T-line.

It's ghetto but it works, at least as a temporary measure when you need something quickly.
