Morning all,
I've made my own catch tank in the spirit of locost and I reckon it's only cost me £1.25. so I'm well chuffed.
any comments welcome. (I know it needs painting!)

Nice one!
How did you make it? All from sheet or did you find something useful that looked like it would fit for the top and bottom?
