I have a bare FWDP vac block and need to pick up some 1/8th and 3/4 NPT nipples for it. Where did you guys find yours?

I couldn't find any 1/8th in thread 1/8th in nipple fittings at home depot or lowes. I ended up ordering them off of fittings4less.com I think was the site. All HD & Lowes had were 1/4'' thread by 1/8'' nipple. I didn't even think to try mcmaster that prolly woulda been a better/cheaper idea if they've got em.

I picked up a block that was 1/8th NPT and then I drilled and tapped it for the 1/4" fittings. It is a lot easier to find a variety in 1/4" as most have noted.

Most HVAC supply houses have all that stuff... Brass 1/8 nips, 90s, and butt connectors.
When I did my vac block I drilled a piece of 3/8 brass pipe and soldered the connectors in.
