i stumbled on a huge pile of tri clover fittings, pipe and a lot of misc canisters and parts and stuff at my friendly neighborhood scrap yard they only take cash so i only got enough to plumb my rig. It is mostly 7/8 id and 2" couplers there is some larger diameter stuff also if some of you are interested i will go back Monday morning and buy it all maybe a few hundred pounds there has got to be enough to hard line at least a half a dozen rigs. i believe it came from coca cola there is syrup residue on some of it (and it tastes just like cherry cola l-o-l-a lola) ha!! so let me know by tomorrow if you want in on this glorious bounty

+1 On Bobby's post. Not only is all the tri-clover stuff nice, the full-port stainless ball valves are a good find too. Snatch it up, fleabay the rest, or sell to HBt'ers to cover your costs, and everybody's happy.

Great find.
 
At scrap prices you'd be a fool not to buy em all.

Compare scrap prices to e-bay prices (used) for what you bought. Do the math...

Whether you sell em on e-bay or here, and whether you sell them for "fair" prices or for triple what ya paid you'll come out ahead. No problem whatsoever with making a few bucks off of your "friends" here.
 
I am interested. Are you asking if any of us want any? If you are willing to ship I would be up for a at least three maybe 6 fittings depending on price.
 
yes i will ship to you if necessary. i have decided to buy it all if you are interested make a list of the stuff you want and i will do my best to ablige
 
we shall see, tomorrow hopfully i will be comiin home with a boatload of tri clover sweet lovin any body who is interested i will post up what i have i will make every body a good deal. and yes i do take credit cards
 
I'm very interested in the valves. PM me the details. I might be interested in some other stuff too, but definitely interested in the valves.
 
Very interested in a bunch of your stuff!! Was going to send you a PM, but your mailbox is full ;)...
 
Beautiful... just beautiful. I wish I knew what to do with it all. I have yet to design my ultimate rig but if I found that stuff it sure would push me a little harder to get there. Good find brother.
 
the owner of the scrap yard had had his guys pull it all out of the pile for me i will be going to pick it up tomorrow afternoon and then i am heading out of town for the weekend as soon as i get back i will go through it all and price it all out. any body need any any where from s.l.c. ut to mesa az i am taking a bunch of cabinets to arizona and could bring some along if you would like to save on shipping ?

I might be able to have a friend pick it up. He lives in Park City and works in Salt Lake.

Let me know prices and I will pay you through paypal or something and have him pick it up. His girlfriend lives here in colorado so he swings by pretty often.

Let me know.
 
sorry i have been out of town and busy as all hell. i was forced to sell a good portion of it to the proprietor of my local home brew supply shop. $400 and 6 cornies i couldn't turn it down i still have quite a bit but i need to lay out my own rig before i start selling it all off.

I am an outside observer because I don't need any of the TriClover stuff. You got greedy and let a few people down. I am sure you would have made alot more than that, had you sold it to the guys and gals here, and you would have made a number of homebrewers very happy in the process. All the LHBS is going to do, is sell it at a profit. You made a promise to sell it to the guys and gals here.

You just snubbed the very guys and gals that would have offered you primo advice when building your rig. Thats not the way to make friends here.
 
Yeah i agree with Guy, unless you have a LOT left over; you kinda screwed some people.
