the hard part here was finding pipe that's goes into 3/4 pex. 3/8 gas pipe threaded will screw into pex, I could not find and at home dumpster or blowes. only thing they did have was 3" long nipples. 3 bucks a piece needing 25 well. I was hoping to find a length and thread my own. What I did find was the right size pipe off an old cloth awning. Now just need clamps on the ends. All pieces here found laying around at work. My cost 1 hour of labor.
