(B) Water filter (do not pay those mad prices, mine was £3.50, from the local department store) resin, ion-exchange, beads ...
Loads
Note the wonderful range of sizes (the black specks are charcoal and spikey, giving readers an idea on how to separate it, easily, from the spheres, if needs be - this was after one panning ;) ) ...
... as in the inspired and outstanding Baneblade Transformer, From Baneblade to Titan ...
... and "Rivets by the Million"
... and Making Smallscale Rivets
... and Making Rivets
(C) Old, hard drive 'filter' components ...

It is based around the Tony Cottrell White Dwarf plans, but will be fitted out in the Forgeworld/GW (and a few other references/modifications) style.
The Plans: With Forgeworld and White Dwarf versions for reference ...
