    Default Few dollar oil catch can

    Bits and pieces
    Two dollar drinking bottle(prefer aluminium, easier to work with). 3/8 brass fittings with 10mm hose and pipe connection. Short piece of 10mm copper/stainless/plastic pipe.
    Fitting 1
    Fitting 2 ditch the center part on this and use only nut and the ring inside.

    Drill hole and file it to 16mm. I hope you got the aluminium bottle.

    Cut and bend the pipe. It should have 1-2cm gap so that it doesnt touch the bottom of the bottle. Drill 5mm or so hole or few to cork.

    Thighten the fittings It can be done with right kind of pliers.
    I used these.

    Fill it with steel wool or something similar. I used aluminium lathe chips...

    Final assembly

    It took less than hour to fabricate and install this. Cost's were to me 3 euros.

    or

    LOL
