Sounds like I need to order up a bunch of 3/16 tubing so that I have 3 lines of 3/16.

Thank you for all your input.

I am a very small producer, this year going from 135 to 200+ taps. I have looked at 3/4" mainline and it looks like it would be great to use but it seems as though it should be as straight as...
