Custom Acrylic Reservoir

xNINJAx · 30 May 2020 at 15:38

Hi All -
I'm hoping that someone can help me? I am trying to find someone who will make me a custom acrylic reservoir for my new build. Preferably a UK based supplier would be ideal, but an EU based one is OK. I have tried to contact Stealkey customs, but sadly I have not received a response as yet.

Can some recommend a reliable supplier please?

TIA

What case is it for?
Ocuk do sell distro plates for some cases
Some of the guys in here have cnc machines
And the ability to make them
But forget exactly who

Thanks for the reply.

It's for a Thermaltake Level 20 XT, I have drawn up the design which is very similar to the one's which Stealkey make, albeit without the distribution points. But I want to install mine in the roof of the case, I have made a sub-frame to support it and just need a flat res to slip into it. It's basically a flat top 5mm acrylic plate with a 40mm deep res fixed beneath it. It's only the bottom piece which needs to be CNC cut out of a 40mm block of acrylic. Here's the one's Stealkey makes;

Thanks I've seen Radikult's work and it's good, but as you say shipping costs will be high plus the import tax on top too.

I'll keep searching, I may have found a UK guy, but am waiting on a reply from him.

wcmechmodding also seems to sell similar items from Malaysia, I looked at him for my o11 project but instead I'm going for a side radiator and a normal pump / reservoir.

Can I ask what that set you back? A mate is after a custom distro plate for a TT View71 - this thread has been really helpful for sources, thank you.

That twin res cost me £251 including next day shipping, simpler designs would obviously be cheaper. Contact Andy Lauder at Product Design Foundry and he'll happily give you a quote.

I had a small issue with the res and contacted Andy Lauder about it, he quickly acted to resolve the issue. First class customer care, I can highly recommend this guy.

If you need some custom parts manufactured, then contact Andy with your needs;
