Maybe if someone with a micrometer could spec it out, you could make the right one for us. You could probably email Jim and he'd give you the proper measurements.
The knurling and the sloped part of the top cap for starters.
@ocd dont be sorry man. U meant no harm.. If u can work something else w jim, u will have plenty business from most of us here. We like seeing our juice but want glass
Sir I take my Hat off for you for changing your site so quickly and coming to the forum too. (and i don't take my Hat off for anything normally!)

Wish I had a micrometer. I would love a clear glass. Maybe I'm going to have to bite the bullet and order an SS tank for my "spare parts" DID.
But I'm avoiding that because I fear a mini will tag along for the ride

The clone don't look exactly like the DID,if you have both,put them side by side.the clone is slightly bigger and the knurled section at the bottom and top are different.

OCD, that's the kind of response that earns business from me! I'm gonna check out your site and see if there's anything I can order.
I would also love to get glass tank to DID, but is this a good idea? In mods with 2mm thick tank wall is quite solid. In DID tank wall is very thin and I think glass tank would be extreme fragile. Of course wall could be bigger, like on photos posted in this topic, but for me that looks ugly. Better idea for crack-tank-liquids will be tank from siringe material.

Very strange indeed cloud, cant figure out. I went to 500 mesh and my DID never performed better. Yes, maybe deep clean because the mesh itself rolled tight and fat wicks extremely well and has full flavor potential. Keep us informed with your tinkering. Wish I could offer more advice, but I know, you know what you are doing. Your setup sounds exactly like mine but with opposite results, curious.
I can say that plastic is prone to breakage too. There is another tank maker that I use for certain flavors I actually like in a carto that I've dropped many times without breaking. Now granted they don't make for the DID, but the glass/Pyrex, etc can be very durable. Even more so than the plastics. For the right glass, for the right look, I believe it would be worth it.
Nothing beats the SS, but options could be available.

Congrats on you new bundle of joy, Jim! May happiness, health and good fortune shine on her always. 
Talking of wicks and oxidation....
I am just going to toss my thoughts in, and suggest a way that I now do it, that is slightly different, but gives me perfect results, every time.
I keep all the dregs of juice from old flavours and failed DIY mixes and throw them all in to a 100ml bottle.
I flame off the mesh before rolling it in the gas hob in the kitchen, both sides, air cool.
I then roll my wick, as required, normal way.
I then heat the wick to a deep orange on the gas stove hob and quench in the above bottle of juice, it creates quite a fog cloud as it vaporises some of the juice on contact. I then reintroduce a flame to the soaked wick and let it burn off slow.
I repeat the whole heating, quenching, flaming off process about three times, sometimes four
It oxidises the wick very well, and I never, repeat never, have a problem with shorts or hotspots caused by a badly oxidised wick.
It also is a way to use up all the dregs of juice that would only get thrown away.... Win/Win.

Hooray for babies! Congratulations, Jim! Fatherhood will be the hardest job you'll ever love.
The notches on the genuine DID top and bottom caps are shorter. Also they are pointing to the left.
