Has anyone made a homemade waterbox out of carbon or fiberglass? Any advantages/disadvantages? How did you design the baffles?

This is my Factory Pipe waterbox for my SN. It weighs about 3 lbs and it's a whole lot cheaper than the carbon fiber wamiltons waterbox...or any other carbon fiber waterbox for that matter. The FP waterbox does not have any baffles in it. The only thing it does have is about a 3" tall curved plate mounted around the outlet on top. It's between the exhaust inlet on the side and top outlet. It's really not that loud of a waterbox either but they don't get too much simpler than that.

One other note. This waterbox has stood up to countless backfires...which is more than I can say for my crank. I'd blown up 3 fiberglass waterboxes in two different ski's. I'd be afraid to blow up a carbon fiber box.
