Made mine from an industrial chemical storage container it holds 3 quarts. Walls of tank are .045" thick.
You can see it in my video hanging on the wall.

Flambeau is THE place to order these tanks. They have them in just about any size and configuration you could want. I use the 1.5 quart and 2 quart tanks with the heavy duty unvented cap. I put on my own fittings, but you can get them already installed if you want. You can't order online though, look for the phone number on the web site. Here is the link to the 2 quart tank page:

Good Luck!

Local hardware store...
10 foot 2" PVC Schedual 40 pipe, $4.07 (bought one today)
3 or 4 Barbed fittings... $3-$8. Depends on what you get.
1 Rubber cap with a Stainless steel Hose clamp.. $2.49...
1 PVC Slip on cap.. $0.99...
Building your OWN Resivouir.... PRICELESS......

Just cut the 10 Foot pipe to a size you want to use. Then you have a LOT of extra for what ever you want.
I've built Several Bubblers with the extra. and 2nd bubblers, and 3rd bubblers... you get the idea...

I found a SS water bottle for free, drilled some hole, added some glue....

just use a old soup can or some junk, it's just a water vessel, if you really want to waist your money on a water holding device, you can send me 20 buck, and i'll send you something out of my trash bin. (seriously, i'll do this, I'll even add some hose connections)

Out of curiosity, will those rubber caps with hose clamps stand up to any pressure?
