Badger problem- pickup tubes.

Hi Don;

    Yes! I have a good source for that stuff. Well, actually two. First is my local Medical Supply house and Second; The Company that makes fittings and supplies for the Oxygen industry. ie. Oxy supplies for individuals.

    The second company sends the stuff to my friend and he brings it over from the house.A third possible source is the folks that make parts for the R.C. Racing Boat market ( Gas).

 I also made some of my own out of Aircraft grade Tubing ( Aluminum) and built some new Brush, Unit to Bottle fittings. All using Aircraft parts. They can be found. Just look in the less obvious places!

I have some alminum and some brass.  I have thought of building an adapter from that stuff.  But the wall thickness is insuffient to drill out the closest size (3/32)  I considered soldering pieces of 3/32 and 1/8 together and drilling out with closest drill size. I need about 105 mil.  But if I can find plastic tubing that fits, that is a lot easier.

Don, I don’t totally understand what you are talking about, but if either or both of these would work, I don’t mind sending them to you.  I have a bunch of the metal ones, and a couple of the plastic ones.  They are both for Badger.

Don't need the plastic ones- they are still available. I could use one of the metal ones- I'll send you a private message when I get home tomorrow.

I found them!  HLJ still has the pickup tubes for the old metal lids, so I ordered a few.
