Cool design.

Eric, If you decide on the Sherman cap;
They are very well made. I ordered 4 a couple years ago so had a chance to handle them. My only suggestion would be you locate a thin flat rubber washer that would fit around the base (at the bottom of the threads), so when you screw the cap down on the base the rubber provides some resistance preventing the top from backing-off through constant vibration. I actually located washers which worked perfectly at a local Ace Hardware (EDIT: It may have been a West Marine). Ultimately I went a different route, and returned them.
