"Oh, that's cool.  Although it does make me feel a bit silly going to fill containers from the spring when I lived three blocks away..."

"Yes, the spring is still operating and there doesn't appear to be any restrictions on how much you can take.  I've also heard that some areas of Petone have tap water supplied from the spring, but I haven't been able to find a…"

"Evan are you able to supply fittings again, Im after a number of ball valves, bulkheads, barbs etc."

"Thanks Evan, I'll work out what I need and send you a pm, cheers Craig"

"I have a 600mm length that I am cutting up now, how long do you need your bulkheads and how many? and do you need back nuts and what is your prefered sealing system Evan"

"I ended up getting cam lock fittings from graham at inz hydro, he was great to deal with and I'm happy with the couplings, also got my 2 piece ball valves from him as well. I've had trouble sourcing 1/2" threaded pipe for weldless…"

"I haven't sourced bottles for a couple of years now, but I got most of mine from Super Liquor on Parkvale Rd in Karori.  The guys in there were great back then - one guy noticed that I'd come in and bought a full crate a couple of…"

"Yes you can retap them with a BSP tap quite successfully, we are required to do this reguarly in my industry, ok to do with brass or S/S but if you were to do it with nickel plated you remove the plating : -)"

"I personally don't see the hype over 3 piece vs 2 piece. Both need spanners to undo but 3 piece are a bit more fidly to get back together (ok I have yet to take apart my 2 pce ones!). 1/2" BSP/NPT are close enough that you can use one or…"

"Yeah that is a good price, I put this forum over to dealing directly with INZHydro due to being overseas for a period last year, at $5 and $7 they are cheaper than NZ but you may need to tap the NPT for BSP, I was privvy to 3 piece ball valves for…"

"Can you let us know what type camlocks those prices are for so we can compare apples with apples. I have dealt with INZHydro before and they were really good, pretty good pricing. It all comes down to how many you want I guess, small order and…"

"Hi Evan, Proflowdynamics are selling male and female cam lock fittings for about $5.2NZD and $7.90NZD each.  Even with the delivery cost that Otto mentions above, it's still cheap.  Who else can do this kind of a deal?  Proflow…"

"I need to get some more stainless for my system, where in NZ can I get better prices other than the US supplies. I know of INZHydro, but where else ? Cheers."

"That very convenient! I'm wanting to move to S/Steel QD's or camlocks soon. I'll figure out exactly what I need and get back to you for some pricing :) (Assuming you are also able to get the Quick Disconnects?) "

"There are better prices for all that right here in NZ if you shop right. I am back in the S/Steel fittings game again as from this week."

"Sorry thats USD, Bought myn when the dollar was good."
