I have a few things to clarify to help in assembling a reactor. I will be posting them here, including pics, part lists, and assembly sequence for the plumbing. I will also try to post helpful hints.
I will update this thread over the next week or two with pics.
Parts list:

1/2" vinyl tube.
~3 ft of 1/2" PVC pipe, cut to the following lengths:
(2) 1-1/2"
3-3/4"
2-3/8"
16"
1" to 1/2" PVC step bushing, S x S (slip x slip).
1"x1"x1/2" PVC elbow, S x S x T.
1/2" funny elbow, male (barbed x threaded). I got mine at Derk's Plumbing, and they work the best.
1/2" funny elbow, female. See above.

6"x3/8"x6" acrylic sheet, preferably clear.
Acrylic top and bottom flanges, from the WMAS online store (coming very soon). Laser cut, high quality.
I will make a pdf of the handout which includes small pics of the parts.
First of many pics. Here is the basic plumbing assembly. On the left, we have the input plumbing assembly.
On the right, we have the output plumbing assembly. More on this to come.
