Here are a few pics from my tool!Tim Chen wrote:I want to try and make a batkiter coupling design that is just made from common PVC pipe fittings that way everyone can make them without special tools! I don't like using brass lamp rods inside my rockets. I want to try to make something with a larger diameter as well.
What does your "tool" you use to install the couplings look like?

Here the solution! Lamp rods from brass are not really good for assembling more than two or more tanks.Tim Chen wrote:I want to try and make a batkiter coupling design that is just made from common PVC pipe fittings that way everyone can make them without special tools!

You can drill out the center of a large nylon bolt you can get the same results. If you make several of them you can put them in a star pattern and get more air flow.Tim Chen wrote:I want to try and make a batkiter coupling design that is just made from common PVC pipe fittings that way everyone can make them without special tools!
