Yeah, I think we here in North Texas have had our three or four days of Winter already. It's going to be somewhere close to 70 degrees tomorrow. :D

mine should be here monday


tried to put together the fittings and lines for the gauges but failed with one of the stupid little ferrule washers in the compression fittings..

apparently it was slightly crooked when i tightened it down. got all jacked up so i had to order some :x

- Sun Jan 02, 2011 10:58 pm #231031 a company called Fastenal. they have a shop i pass on my way to work. i picked mine up at the store but found a link for you..


these are the bolts.. http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/detail.ex?sku=M42550020A20000&ucst=t


and i'm pretty sure, but not 100% these are the washers.. http://www.fastenal.com/web/products/detail.ex?sku=71159&ucst=t


the part # i had originally pulled for the washers was #12 18-8 but they were a little too small.. the link above is for #10 18-8 which i'm pretty sure is the next size bigger. either way, they're only $.06 a piece.. get a variety :lol:
