Ok i stumbled around with this idea on here for about a week. The funny thing is that one camera that i took the build log photos with is dead and cant get pictures off of till tommorow but i am finished and can post my completed reservoir.

Keep in mind its only a showpeice and will not be used for filling bleeding etc.
Total cost for materials and such was quite low but being my first time using acrylic not the best quality

It will fit in the antec side panel where the fan mounts and is going to screw right into the side panel as well. Picture of the side panel to show where it will fit in the mesh area added.

Love to see comments and will be showing it in my case as soon as my supplies come to redo my loop.

Ok As requested the res has been installed Enjoy the vid.

I like it. I've had a similar build of res for Indignity in terms of being tall and flat and having some dividers to make the fluid fun to look at.

It's a winner

Lol thanks , its your waterfall 3 bay res that i bought from you that gave me the idea. So now ill have 2 waterfalls in my case...

I really undestand how hard it is to work with acrylic now. Your stuff is amazingly clean and well done but im sure your tools are much more suited. Lol this was all done with a jigsaw and alot of sanding to get it even after that. Still leaks down the sides on the waterfall but not by much, had to use something other then weld-on 3 for the waterfall part as it dried way to fast.

the only thing missing is some pin wheels that spin
with the water flow.

Eventually its going to get out, your case isn't air tight.

i love you

That is such an awesome case mod!!! Lol you should hook up a water wheel attached to a small(very small) generator to power something like a light or something.... just to make it even better.

EDIT: Just think about how cool that would be with UV reactive coolant!!!!
