    OK so it's just trying to figure how things are possibly going to go so no final positions obviously

    Photo 1 - all the bits that got delivered - still needs some more bits that I forgot about until I started to fit things. 4" elbow looked massive when I first saw it

    Photo 2 - just seeing how site glass will fit onto a bit of 1.5" pressure as it's made for 50mm metric pipe - gotta love those flexi rubber boots.

    Photo 3 - 3" coupler fitted to the inlet of the Eazy Pod. That was a pain in the arse to fit as I struggled for 15 to 20 mins trying to force it on lever it on and even took a run up at it a few times then took the lid off the Pod turned the hole thing upside down and the bloody thing went on in seconds - just needed some decent downwards pressure which I couldn't get with the Pod up the right way as there was no weight to it. The bit of 3" pressure is just there to give me an idea of how the Pod will need to sit on the slab etc and something to aim at with the BD pipe work later on maybe.

    Photo 4 - various fittings attached to the outlet and waste pipe of the Pod. May alter the waste to gain some space back and drop it down via a 2" flexi rubber boot elbow before going into the ball valve etc?

    A couple more photos -

    Photo 1 - waste outlet with elbow and 2" waste pipe added - again I think the elbow would be better on the fitting attached to the Pod so the ball valve will be mounted vertically not horizontally to gain space? Also the Pod needs to be turned as at the moment the outlet is running diagonally forward so it needs to be pushed back so it's parallel with the garage side wall I think?

    Photo 2 - 3" slide valve just pushed onto the end of the elbow as it looks like the 3" coupler won't fit over it and a 4" flexi rubber boot fitting is too large so I may have to get some 3" pressure pipe glued into the slide valve with just enough sticking out to be able to fit flexi rubber boots either side of it.

    Photo 3 - 4" elbow fitted to inlet of barrel filter just to see how well it fitted.

    I think I will have the barrel filter on the right of the Pod and then come out of the outlet down to the pump. Then run the pipe work under the 2 stands and up to the tank not forgetting to fit a ball valve either side of it. Just going with ball valves as I bought some a while ago so have some spare.

    You'd like to think so but unfortunately as the girlfriend doesn't know anything about this I can only do work on it when she's not around LOL

    It’s like having an affair then? 😃
    Why not get the girlfriend involved, you could end up having a threesome.

    Looking at the size difference between the 3" pressure pipe elbow and the 3" slide valve fittings where the pipe goes in would a 4" flexi rubber boot give a good enough seal on that as I have tried a 4" end cap and a 4" to 3" reducer on another 3" pressure pipe elbow and it was a pretty good fit just not sure if the elbow and slide valve are too much of a diameter difference? Looks like I will have to give it a try later

    Just checked and 4" is too big and 3" is too small so looks like some more glueing is required

    It's a plastic container that is usually about 1 cubic meter in volume and has a metal frame round it. They are often used to make QTs or fry tanks etc.

    I am surprised I didn't get them after shifting the tank around on my own.

    A few bits turned up today which some are only to help gain some space in the garage, then there is a low profile shower waste which I hope to fit into the bottom of the waste system tub and then there is a strap spanner so I can tighten up any ball valve unions that are leaking.

    Just realised something LOL

    I could make some extra space by fitting some of these things I keep buying for the QT and waste system LOL

    If only I had the time
