[Shop-talk] air hose

[Dave Cavanaugh]

Just go to the BORG or hardware store.  Find a quick disconnect fitting 
the same style as your hose uses.  It'll be threaded on the other end, 
either male or female.  Take it to the plumbing department and tell the 
guy there you need a 3 foot (or so) piece of 1/4" black or galvanized 
pipe and a fitting to screw THIS (show him the air fitting) on the end.  
Screw together.  Done.
