anybody know if theres any home depots in the cities that sell bulkead fittings. i cant seem to find em at the st anthony hd and of course the employees are no help. i can buy them at something fishy but at almost 15.00 each it gets a little expensive.

That's the only are I can think of. I don't like the store either but they are cheaper than HD and usually have anything you need.

i don't think either store sells them.

you can diy one out of fittings you can buy at either store.

i also think boat supply stores carry them for making livewells in boats. that's what i hear anyhow.

the ones i found for boats though arent an exact size so you cant fit a pvc fitting into them. their either too loose or they wont go in.

sls,

you might be out of luck at this time in the season. I think i saw some in the lawn and garden area at the st. cloud store in the early summer. (men-tards)

i need 2 -1" bulkeads for m y sump. right now i have the tubes going right through the holes so if i have a power outage im going to have water all over the floor. unfortunately i dont have 30 bucks for them after buying new bulbs, sand for the fuge,macro, etc... im sure you get the point.

I bought some off a guy on Ebay for about $2 each, if he is still selling them it might be worht the wait. When I bought mine he was selling 50 at a time and shipping was only a couple of bucks.
