It started off with a water bottle that i bought for $5 at target.
Alright so my dad use to be a plumber and i told him i wanted to use brass he told me he wanted to use copper, so i figured i would turn this into a father son project and we ended up using copper.
So i had never sweated any pipes together so he showed me how. Its very easy.
Copper fittings $11
Drilled some holes in the down tube (input)
And drilled and hammered in a piece of 1/2" for the output.
After we got it all mocked up. And stuffed the inside lightly with steel wool we needed more tools.
An application stick covered with what appeared to be some sort of frozen diary product.
2 good friends of mine showed up to help.
Letting it dry.
I needed a bracket to hold it up so i recycled a piece of 3" exhaust tubing, an hold hose clamp, and welded together this little contraption.
The clamp now has paint on it and im waiting for the JB weld to dry then i want to sand and paint the catch can satin black. So stay tuned for updates.
