If not Ill hammer away at it , cant wait to see what the new 3/16th lines are going to produce, 100 ft drop on some of them average of 20+ per run. Good luck to everyone ,Al

    I got about 300 done this afternoon ,quit when it got dark. The good part is I got almost all the new 3/16th done. Going to hit it early tomorrow morning and try to get all the taps that go to the main bulk tank done first , then Ill work on the other lines. ADK1 why are you waiting the next week looks really good ,your weather isn't much different than mine. Hope it works out for you. Good luck all ,Al

    Hard saying if they will. I bought all my taps at the open house last spring. The only thing I am picking up is my stainless stack and some between the pan gasket
