"Lurker"
I'm getting ready to drill a 20L to make it rr and was wondering if I could use a MPT x slip adapter and a 90* slip x FPT elbow instead of haveing to order a bulkhead fitting. I figure I will put the elbow inside the tank and have the MPT x slip adapter going through the hole I'll drill in the glass and into the FPT portion of the elbow. I plan on using either silicone or o-rings to prevent leaking.
So, will this work? Has anyone else tried it? If so, how has it worked out for you?
I just can't see paying $7-$10 for the bulkhead fitting and then paying $10 just to have it shipped to me when I can spend less than $2 at Lowes for standard plumbing fittings and get the same results.
