and all the high flow blanks now machined ready to bore out either later in the week or when i get back to school on a more powerful lathe, and also a load of flats to machine when i get back to school or some workshop time with a mill. Just got the main tanks to machine now:

Looks very impressive, and how small are those valves?

cheers, and the valve at its widest point is 15mm dia but it will be milled down to flats so i can screw my pipes into it, the ports through it are m8 thread 5.5mm flow

tank blank(

) done, deciding whether i can fit a secondary reservoir in the size and space... current one is 29mm dia at the raised section (to be milled down as 4 flats)
