they are on santa rosa ave between the todd road exit and the wilfred golf course exit

the hole size is depends on the schedule of the pvc that you buy, its better to have the bulk head first before you drill

I have a few different sizes if you want to meet up I go through petaluma around 8pm on my way home i'll just bring a few different sies and you can pick what you want.

I might be able to meet up tommorrow night but sat or sun night works better for me.
I was a cook. It was a good experience got to go Europe and all around the Caribbean.
Do you need threaded or slip? never mind I'll bring both.

I always go for threaded that you can reuse them down the road if you ever change setups.
