Greetings! My name is Cat and I am happy to finally have the opportunity to offer "Unique" carto tanks here on ECF. Ash (my friend) is the maker of these tanks and lives in the UK. He is a man of many talents and I am his supplier for Unique tanks here in America.
The material we have been using for the tanks is polyester and poly/acrylic blends. This will be the first batch I will have a few acrylics in the mix as well. Each top cap is a different style with its own unique personality because they are hand turned, rather than being turned using a CnC (Computer in Control/Command) lathe.
The tube is made from a PMMA material that has the added advantage of being more resistant to some of the tank cracking juices. It is a little more brittle than polycarbonate but again we feel this is a good material to use.
We are using X type o-rings giving a double seal between the caps and the tank body, The carto seal is provided by a standard O-ring. Each tank will come with back up O-rings. They will be 50.00 plus 3.00 for shipping with tracking.
I don't have a website to offer these, so I am having my first sale on Sunday, April 14th at 11:00 am PST. I will have a group picture of the tanks for sale tomorrow. I will have the tanks numbered and posted on Friday for you to take a look at ahead of time if you are interested in owning one. I hope you like them as much as I do!!
These are some samples of my personal collection of Unique tanks that I have jazzed up with bedazzle tubes. They also fit beautifully on the gen drop ins for those of you who are using those. Thanks for looking! Cat

The second post shows the tanks for sale this Sunday at 11:00 PST . There are 25 tanks in this batch. I pay for these ahead of time, so I need to see how much interest there is for this first batch before I bring in larger batches. I will have individual pictures of each tank numbered and I will be ready to post individual pictures for you to view on Friday. When the sale opens, one would pm me their choices and I will pm back with paypal instructions. I will post more about it when I get the final pictures up on Friday. The tubes will crack with heavier cinnamons. Maybe someone can chime in if they are aware of other tank cracking juices with these tubes. I would offer glass, but melting glass on the bedazzle thread makes Unique glass tubes for these tanks and most people love them. I hope this answers some of your questions and thanks.
