Oil catch can install diagram/design? I have access to a welder, ss, and some tool such as a break, plasma cutter, drill press, hand tools. Anyone have a design on a catch can for a FI setup they would like to share.

Drill a hole on the water bottle, two thirds from the bottom to the top. This will allow for a significant sludge build-up before thigs get clogged. This hole needs to be widened by using either a round file, since aluminum is quite soft, the process will be quick. Install the brass/copper fitting with an appropriately sized wrench. Mix the epoxy putty and apply to the base of the fitting.
