Next stage was to design and order the parts for the plumbing of the tank.
I got the plumbing parts from http://www.savko.com a good supplier.

I can't see 'em either, but wanted to say good luck with your project, sounds like it will be a saga, keep the details coming as I am interested to know how to approach a project that size.

This is truly strange. The pics appear as a small red x in a box. By right clicking the mouse on the x; selecting "properties", then copying the URL of the picture; pasting it to my browser, I can bring up the picture in a new window. After having done this, the picture now appears in the post as if nothing was wrong! I have to do this separately for each picture.
As with many other things, I don't know all I understand about this!

Ok
I tried what Dick did and the pictures opened up just fine. But, I still have a red X on the thread. Oh well.
Mike this will be fun, we're both doing plumbing at the same time.
Don't forget check valves!
I'm hooking up a AmpMaster and building a manifold.
