    GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i've got 20 one inch nipples of varying length...

    i've got 10 1/2" nipples of varying length....

    i don't have a single 3/4" nipple....

    guess what size i need?!@?!?!

    sigh... time to go to lowes/HD... buy 10 of the twenty three cent parts... waste more in gas than the part costs....

    ah well, at least maybe i can pick up the RIGHT part, a 3/4" MPT to 3/4" barb rather than a 3/4" nipple to a FPT 3/4" to a 3/4" barb.. but i doubt it...

    there's a sign on the corner 1 block from my house: "coming soon: OSH!"

    oh happy day... can't wait.

    Whodah...you can never have too many nipples lying around I always say.

    I have a hole bucket of plumbing pvc, parts however the last two times I needed something...it was not there. I know what you mean.
    Always looking for a tight clam!!

    You may want to consult your doctor on that.

    If you need 2, buy 8. Of course, I have a box of PVC parts to rival the best stocked home improvement store.

    well, a happy ending.. they had the exact part i needed at least!

    i get to do this:


    instead of this:


    (mag 9.5, LifeReef Skimmer)

    i still say i need to be able to call someone up and say:
    yes, i'd like a plumbing part.

    on one end, a 3/4" female piped thread
    on the middle, a ball valve
    on the other end, a 3/4" barb male

    and it costs under 5 bux per part.

    then it gets delivered/teleported to me w/in 30 minutes or less. that or it's free...
