Very nice. It's impressive to see everything together like that. Especially love the window looking in. Very cool.
Going to have to do a thread of my own now.

... that's creepy
arturo7, do you play poker. I've seen that avatar before.
I got the flex pipe from McMaster Carr and it is not rated for outdoor use. I poked around quickly and didn't see anything for that length for outdoor use. You can always contact McMaster though and see if they have a recommendation. I might have missed it.
McMaster-Carr
The flex pipe I got comes in lengths of 20 feet but again... it's not for outdoor use.
Unless you REALLY know what you're doing, I would very strongly recommend having a professional do it. It's one thing to have a leaking water pipe, it's an entirely different thing to have a natural gas line leaking. If you are going to have a plumber come in and run the pipe, just have him run a line to the garage as well and then you wouldn't need the 20 feet of flex line. If a plumber is already coming out, another few feet of pipe to run it to the garage is going to be nothing. Then you would just need a short line of flex pipe (I have 8 feet I think) that would travel with your rig and you can just plug it in wherever the plumber puts a connection.
I'm certainly not a natural gas expert so take my advice on this with a grain of salt but my father (who teaches gas heating at a technical college) pointed me in the right direction for pipe size and fittings... I am using 1/2 copper soft drawn to feed the two 32-jet burners. Because gas pressure in a typical home is only about 3-4 lbs, I wanted to make sure the overall volume of gas getting to the burners wasn't going to be restricted... so I got the 3/4 flex pipe which then T's off to the two 1/2 copper feed-lines to the burners.
