Anyone here know of any place in norther NJ (particularly, Morris County) where I can buy fittings? I went to Microcenter yesterday and they had very little by way of 1/2 inch stuff.

I know I can order online and have by mid-week but I really wanted to get this loop together this afternoon. Thanks.

You can try looking in plumbing stores looking for BSPP threaded fittings...but IME, WCing fittings are impossible to source locally. Some folks have reported success at Home Depot/Lowes, but I had no such luck out here.

Yea, tried HD and Lowe's last night, no luck, I was actually on a quest yesterday. I hit every plumbing place I could think of. No luck.

Did you ask the guys that work there? I know the bins in the wc dept are practically empty, but they have a giant container of wc parts in storage that an employee can go get. I found a bunch of 1/2"id/3/4"od fittings there once
..about 3 months ago though.

Were you looking for BSPP or G1/4", they are the same thing-it is a matter of what you call it...and IME if you say "G1/4" people will look at you like you're from Mars. If you say "BSPP" they might have heard of it.

Yea, I talked to Chris there, their WC guru onsite. He checked the bins behind the employee area in the back by motherboards. Nadda!

I had actual fittings with me and was looking for a match.
