"are the potential risks of just not having a reservoir at all?" besides pressure building up and popping the hose or shooting the bolt out through the engine killing me instantly.

if theres no way for the radiator to release pressure, it could burst. the hoses could burst. your cooling system would not be very efficient. i wouldn't worry about trying to make ur own. just get a hold of an OEM reservoir which is already properly sized and what not.
