A = 0.785 di^2
A= cross sectional area di=inside diameter
A gallon is approximately 231^3
A 12″ pipe has a cross sectional area of 113^2
231/113=2″ long
A 6″ pipe has a cross sectional area of 28.26^2
231^3/28.26^2=8.174″ long
Other pipe dimensions can be worked out by these formulas.

Why not purchase a tank?
I know you can spend $50 to $70 on ‘replacement’ tanks, similar to those used on “DR” equipment, or boats… but you can also find them for much less…
This one for example, is a 6.5 gallon portable, for about $20….you could even take it off the splitter to go fill it up, without having to move the splitter.
Good Luck

12″ diameter pipe, 10″ long will give you 5 gallons of capacity.
An 8″ pipe needs to be 23″ long to give you 5 gallons…
a 6″ pipe needs to be 41″ long;
15″ pipe needs to be only 6.5″ long;
18″ pipe, 4.5″ high or long, depending on how you set it up;
24″ dia., 2.5″ high;
if you are paying by the pound, then the cheapest tank will the same length as diameter…in this case the 12″ pipe is the cheapest to make a 5 gallon capacity.
