The I.D. on the current vent line is 5/8" / 3/4" O.D., so that would be a 3/4" fitting, would it not? Ahhh maybe I should take things apart first and take stuff with me to match up before I spend alot for extra unusable parts.

As well Edmonton Valve and Fitting carries Swagelok fittings, but they will be $$

Acklands or Gregg distributers will also carry a fair bit of stuff.

Are you sure you want 3/4" fittings?
Thanks. I thought about Greg's and Acklands, but doubted they'd have everything or even want to match stuff up as this stuff isn't readily found in their catalogs and they can't just grab stuff by number. RedL, I didn't know about. And Princess Auto just skipped my mind.

Hmmmmm not one of those rings a bell on having any outlets near 17 Street either. I might have to go in really early one day, so I can take off early to make it over from the plant before they close. I have to check my calendar, but I seem to recall some later afternoon meetings this week. This may not get started Saturday according to plans - I might have to wait another week.

Maybe....I'll just drink a little this Sat., while trying to avoid the ex-gf.

Good Stuff Festus! No hose clamps on the push loks though. Use a little lube and push like hell.


BTW, have you been going to Hair Club For Men? Lookin sharp...





Sorry to hear about your Dad - hope hes doing ok.

Well, the clamps are on. I'm not sure, but it may be worse if I go ahead and take them off. They're currently only snug and not real tight at all.

No hair club........no pun intended either. That guy there was an Uncle that kindly came over to assist with lifting the box........I just put him to further work.

Dad will be alright I believe. They say 3-6 weeks of physio therapy to get the coordination in his left arm and leg back. I sure wasn't impressed with his initial visit(s) to the Royal Alex emerg. dept. After the second visit on Tuesday (ambulance ride there), I stepped in a bit and held them to a 'higher standard' of professionalism. He's getting far better treatment upstairs now. There's not enough room to tell the things I've seen from staff in that emergency department over the course of a couple days.

Thanks for asking how he's doing. I'll pass it along - he has visited the site.
