Re: [GSAS-Member] Fw: Python (WAS polly drums)

[Paul Wallace <pwallace@u.washington.edu>]

Connie:

I have control valves on the faucet side.  Sure you have to turn the knobs 
(with a little more cold than hot) but the function is the same.  I did not 
trust the python provided cut off at all.  After ~5 seconds the pressure built 
up and looked like it was about to leak.  If you have many small tanks though 
it might be a benefit.

If you are using a polly drum with a medium pump I am sure the pressure would 
be fine.

Post a picture of your best DIY Python/water system?
