[QUOTE="Buckeye, post: 547312, member: 17329"] "Unions? Shoulda asked the guys at home depot how to close the loop. Thanks for including this tip for others to read!" Great piece of work, Lee. :) You did some careful measuring and produced an economical sturdy tool from ordinary available materials. We can tweak it with wheels and wrench a pair of unions into it, but those unions will be darned expensive and add a couple of gnarly bumps to your clean design! :D Dad was a plumber so it looks good to me. I'll build mine out of black iron instead of galvinized and maybe save a dime. Might paint it industrial yellow. :P Thanks to the guy who built the stainless one and thanks to you for showing us your plans and a cheaper way. Sharing the fun. That's what I like about this forum. :D [/QUOTE]
