Submersible Build Log

I drilled, tapped and fitted the pipe fittings for the compensating tube.  I couldnt get a proper barbed fitting so i made them with standard 90 degree elbows and a bit of 6mm tube sticking out.  Obviously the tube will clamp around the pipe.

I had a practice on some scrap first to get the feel of how far to tap for the 1/4 BSPT pipe fitting.  I had to be super careful as 1 turn of the tap to many and it would screw all the way through and not seal.  I managed all 4 without messing any up for a change.
