I seem to have four and three all over again - but different this time.
We have a plastic water tank under the tray on our ute/truck. We are not happy with the location, filler inlet and breathers. So it is in the workshop getting a rejig.
We want to put a one inch pipe fitting into the plastic tank - so instead of buying an expensive tap - I decided to try and machine one up.
I couldn't find a lot on the internet about doing this - so had to wing some of it. If my mill had a nodding function I would have aimed for an undercut - but just went with a straight cut - which I am sure is not as effective.
More still to be done on this fix - but here is a stage one report - so get on with it team, I am sure you have a project that you have been going to start and just need some encouragement to make a small start.
