007 - close up

Main tee join.

I chose braided hose which came with a right angle fitting. After removing the rubber core I reattached the original ends by jamming them inside the braid and securing with hose clamps. Fiddly but worked well.

The right angle ends screw onto a male tee join. The tee join connects to a female-to-female threaded joiner which is connected to ~70mm of threaded brass pipe. A rubber o-ring keeps things water tight.

Check out the external pics for the rest.

Shopping list (all parts were 15mm, aka 1/2" from either Mitre10 or Oakley):
- 2x braided hose with the right angle connection.
- 4x stainless steel hose clamps (garden dept)
- 1x 100mm threaded pipe. This was cut into two parts, ~30mm and 70mm.
- 1x brass tee join, all ends male (the part I chose came with attachments to connect flared copper pipe but I didn't use them).
- 1x brass female-to-female joiner.
- 1x male-to-male ball valve.
- 1x brass male-to-barbed hose adaptor (this was the hard part to find, had to go to Oakley).
- 1x brass nut.
- 1x rubber O ring.
- Teflon tape (to seal the threaded joins on the outside).

Mitre10 was generally cheaper than Oakleys unless you have an account or feel like haggling.

Price things up because the parts can swapped around and the costs for similar parts vary a lot. For example it was cheaper to buy the all male tee join with unneeded nuts and a female joiner than a single tee join with a female connection.

I put all the parts through the dishwasher before assembling to remove the grease.
