lookinf for a small resevoir, thats easy to fill/bleed to go in my case. im fed up with the koolance setup and midly upgrading. going with a via 1300, new res and RBX. maybe a new rad if i need to.
 
You can either make one, or get a bay-res. SVC (www.svc.com) has some bay-reses for about $20. I have one in my rig and it's been serving me just fine.

As far as making one, go to home depot and look around for a suitalbe object to turn into a res. many folks use PVC pipe, others use screw-lid containers.
 
its not hard to use a T-line at all...I recommend that. Total cost: $3 of fittings, clamps, and the T-line itself.
 
whoa completely forgot about the t-line. maybe ill just fork out the cash and get a waterchill res. i like that kind of style, but i dont think thats a fair price lol. im considering using my water wetter bottle.

thats actually a good idea for a gh3tto one, a small bottle like that. more of an exaggerated t-line :D
 
Here's a great guide to building a custom high performance reservoir.

If at all possible, you should have the reservoir right before the pump in your loop, either directly connected to the pump or connected with extremely large ID tubing.
