I was looking at materials and ended up measuring the ABS (black sewer) pipe. It is 1/4" thick vs the PVC which was almost 3/16". I also noticed the end caps for ABS are actually flat, the PVC ones are rounded.
In terms of using it for the cannister material, would this work better than PVC? It also solves the "white PVC home made" look.
It seems to be harder than the PVC though, it might break easier if so.
Has anyone used this?
Also,
I may have a solution to the great o-ring debate.....
I found a flat rubber drain seal that has tiny ridges on it that work as guides for cutting. I cut a ring out of it that is the thickness of a 2-133 o-ring, but is a little wider. It seems to give me a better sealing area than an o-ring would. I'll do a report on it as soon as I can test it.
