@Mellow Mullet 💪🏾

Everything went pretty smoothly

Only problem was either this valve sucks or the connector was defective. I tried a little, to force it, but not much. Can't get it on, couldn't get it off 🤷🏾‍♂️ I'll just cut this end off, exchange them tomorrow and make sure that they fit in store lol

Pretty sweet. Feels really durable. I used it once so far, amazingly fun stream with the Dramm 400. Can't wait to give it hell!✊🏾


That is awesome! I still have the original ones that I made, they hold up really well. The only problem I ever had was I left them outside in the winter and we had a hard freeze and the Dramm head had water in it and when it froze the ice pushed the stainless steel shower part of the plastic.

Are you using quick connectors? I was thinking about making 1 for strictly for misting, but screwing and unscrewing gets old fast lol

No, I gave up on quick connects years ago, they always seemed to leak and while watering the trees I ended up also watering my pants, cell phone, shoes, etc...

All of the water spigots in around my benches are dedicated bonsai spigots so I usually only have the wand hooked up, unless it is repotting season, then I swap to a regular nozzle.
