We're using it for general other uses now after/with playing with it a bit. Ie: Heating branding irons, burn out wasp nests and other misc. :-)
Took off the 1" -> 1x1/4"
bought 2 1"x3/4" & 1"x1/2" reducers and 2" nipples (3/4" & 1/2")
Tie and $ permitting I'll play with it more, those things have just been...lacking a tad as of late.
