Need to add a small reservoir, was thinking bay style to the top of my loop to help eliminate air, since my sideways mounted main res is on bottom of the case and air keeps getting trapped in my cpu block. My google-fu is failing me hard atm, hoping to keep it under 50, doesnt need a pump just jeed a fill, inlet and outlet. Can only seem to find the same 4 reservoirs which dont seem like theyd work very well.

Since you're on the west cost... TAP Plastics


I've dealt with them on multiple occasions. They will custom make, anything you can think up, out of any of approx. 10-15 different types of plastic.
As for the necessary metal fittings, you just need to tell them where you want the holes and exactly what size you want them.

I would imagine that EK or similar would have some type of 2 part, threaded, feed through fittings.




/e My bad... it's TAP Plastics.

They also drill holes, laser cut, and sell the proper adhesives to construct your reservoir, from the pieces they cut for you.
They also will do the fabrication for you, if you so desire.





/e I also dealt with AIN Plastics, but that was for manufacturing company.





/ee I checked EK and they do sell "pass through" fittings.
Example:

Both.

Loop liquid looks pretty good still, but case is super gross.

Holyshit, The Jet-Plate that came pre-installed on my monoblock was installed improperly.. Causing restricted flow and air to pile up in the monoblock...


Anyways, Loop is working amazingly atm.
