Or maybe I'll get crazy and break out the AULD skewl tank. BEFORE there was delrin, and BEFORE there was boro, there was but one.
Ah, flashbacks.
How I miss the days, and the daze.

I don't remember ever seeing, that tank before, did DD make that? I would have bought a bunch of those, I always liked that ball valve thingy, but I want the clear face.

They're the original tanks, KAS. Delrin was an upgrade that came about when the anodized BBs were released.
After a bit, he made the delrins standard issue, and stopped making the clear ones. They were nice but more prone to problems. Some were perfect, but many were not (some leakages).
In retrospect, the delrin stands alone as the one tank that is/was basically infallible. They pretty much run through everything, and even my stepdaughter couldn't kill it.
She can kill just about anything (vape related).

Thankfully - I have both tanks and really never ha a huge problem . . . Well - other then a little dripple every now and then . . .
Now - I have a question, when the "Door" is stuck closed - How do Ya' get it open, especially without having to use a crowbar . . .
.
Is it a raw (OG) one, Unc, or anodized?
I believe it is one of the Anodize, given that it is a v3/3.b (not sure can't see inside) . . . AND - Actually, I haven't used it in a few months . . .

My GRIPPY stuff!
Kan't live without it.
Yeah that can be a real pain, it has happened to me several times. Unfortunately I don't really remember how I got it open. I think I just kept pushing on the door with my thumbs, until it finally started to move. I did learn my lesson though, don't leave the box unused with juice in it.

If you have any of that stuff that Kat uses, it might work. I have a roll of it if you need.
I'd still recommend cleaning with alcohol and olive oil, just MUCH less frequently than is needed for the OGs. I used to do mine every three months or so (when in heavy use).
One roll is about six generations' worth.

give it a really good cleaning and conditioning now
I'm having an issue with a couple of SXK Boros. They appear to be leaking at the bottom of the gasket. I don't have this problem with the Boro that came with it. I could buy replacement gaskets but what's to guarantee that it's the gaskets and not a tolerance issue with the boxes?
ETA: Am I in the right thread? Is this OG BB only?
@Katdarling . . . Do Ya' know @DPLongo22 is mentioning "Your" Stuff to people . . . Just sayin' . . .
Hey thx. I have to mention though that some authentic BB users are saying that it's hard to tell the difference from the SXK and the OG. How is that? I find it hard to believe.Hey Muth. Yeah - you want over here >>>
SXK Billet box...
I'll say that a very recent experience (and my first with anything BB cloned) was "enlightening". I compared a neighbor's SXK to an authentic, and the differences were significant and many. I know they're only a third of the price but...
That thread may have some valuable info though. There appears to be some heavy experience with the mods, so I hope it helps you out.
