To seal off the back of mine, i cut a pill bottle down to size and wrapped it in tape and put it in. I bolted it to the piston with the nut that holds on the sealing face.

is it hard to make a piston from a 3 inch tee
or should i stay with a 2 inch?

it could be easier to make a 3" tee piston, if you have the parts needed readily available, but i would say generaly its easier to make smaller pistons (to a certain point, a 1mm piston would be pretty hard

)
