Step 5Mangnifying Glass
The step is actually two seperate ones:
1) Attaching the Magnifying glass to the 1/8" nozzle
For this I simply unscrewed the handle of the magnifying glass, and heated the threaded connector with a pocket torch, and then screwed it into a cut 1/8" nozzle while it was hot, then to be extra secure added some goop to the inside, epoxy doesn't seem to stick to the Loc-Line.
2) Attaching a 1/4" coupler to the double female 3/4" coupler.
This is a bit more difficult, for this step I cut the male end of 1/4" loc-line off of an extra "Y" connector and found a 8/32 screw with a head big enough that it wouldn't pass through. Then I drilled a hold in the female coupler, and put a nut on the inside. This all seems to be holding together fine so far.
