Head trip - "Pipe down, you'se guys!" he said Archly
Curiouser and curiouser...
I'm on the trail of doing an arch, and I learned that many first make mockups with plastic PVC conduit before getting into cutting the tubing to actually make them. I went to check it out and found that the conduit is actually Schedule 40 grey pipe. I can't imagine why something just to contain electrical wire would have to be S40, but it was. It's got lovely sweep elbows, with nipple-type (wide end to glue up to pipe end) Street El fittings, and it's very inexpensive. So, my question is, would this work for the Schedule 40 pipe installations in sanitary service, as specified by the SeaLand folks (who make the fittings to match up to them so you can get the hose on the non-pipe section)? Is the conduit the same size as the PVC pipe, or, perhaps, is one of them an ID and the other an OD measurement? Just thinking of how I might maximize my purchase and minimize my travels :{)) L8R Skip and Lydia, off to work on the boat next week... -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig http://tinyurl.com/384p2 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
