I still haven't given up on building a better tank. This is another variation on the Garf steel clunk tank that is in the NoblARF. I have a lot of trouble making 90* bends in brass/copper tubing without causing problems. I wanted to make the clunk plumbing strong, so I made the tubing long enough to extend through both sides of the tank, and soldered a reinforcement tube in the middle, then drilled the side at 90* to make the clunk mount. To use the tank, one side of the tubing is capped, then the other acts as the feed line. A side benefit is that either point can act as the feed tube as long as the other side is capped. Then I installed a standard over/under fill/overflow tube setup. I hope this thing works.
