I was thinking of using them as a 5 way flow divider on the discharge outlet for a Flout. You could valve off or cap any unused/unneeded lines. I have a drawing but can't figure out what format to upload it in. This system does not like *.pdf or *.doc files. Will it take *.dwg files? Nope..

Make sure your pic is no bigger than 800 x 400 pixels SC... otherwise the webpage on the forum expands too wide to read the page...

try to convert your drawing to .jpg

Okay, lets see if this works well....Now I know how to plot as a *.JPG

Fire back questions....

Yeah, maximum size of pic 256kb
maximum resolution 800*600 and all is well

Ok try this one. Resized to 128 KB. May have to keep trying...

SParkchaser... download the Microsoft Image Resizer... and install it....

http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... ySetup.exe

It's not so much your file size, as your resolution.... use the tool and resize to "medium"... 800x600.....

Rupe how do you access this powertoy? I downloaded it ages ago but have never been able to find it. If I try to download it again it tells me it is there.... If I right click to see if it is an option to open a pic with it is not given. Sounds a neat tool and much quicker than what I do to re-size.

SC another tip is always to preview your pics before posting. That will show you if you have got the size down enough not to widen the page.

I have recently found out that if I push the control + or control - keys, my screen will zoom in and out at will on all internet pages
solves all my viewing problems quick and easy

Download (note where).... install it....

Then when you want to resize a picture, or group of pictures (batch them the normal way with the "shift" or "ctrl" key).... select (them)... right click, and you should see an option... "Resize Pictures"....

Select medium (800x600)... creates files in the same area... with the filenames... "xxxx (medium).jpg"

thanks for that

Excellent diagram SC! Worth the wait...

Single flout well drawn.... what drawing program you using?

I can see ease of use of 3 of the 5 outlets from you adapter.... you plan just to block the 2 facing backwards? Maybe can still use them if beds placed carefully. You know how to bend PVC piping? Saw it on a thread somewhere.... I have tried so many useless ways... was said to put sand inside before applying heat to bend... also suggested to over-bend a little cos tends to relax back a little into position. Make a nice jig if many needed with the same bend I guess... and same heat probably.

Why did you put the U-bend in the pipe after the flout.... that interests me.

So glad you kept on till got it uploaded properly.

So neat Frank! Works like a dream! Thank you!

Voila! There it was all the time! You have no idea the convolutions I went through to get pics re-sized... Thanks Rupe!
