Another new DIY Beckett injector

[stugray]

I built a Becket today from all off the shelf parts:

Here's the finished product:

Here are all the parts:

Here are a couple of detail assembly pics:

and

and:

The beckett was purchased from ebay for $5

all of the rest of the parts were from home depot.

I had to make one cut with a chop saw ( cut the Tee down to 3 inches ), and I had to sand the cut tee so the ends of the compression couplings would fit in snugly.

Total assembly time 20 minutes ( and most of that was sanding ).

What was the seller's name? Maybe they have more.

beckett....? Is that what it's called?

Built an injector similar to that for my DIY CR using other parts from HD but instead of beckett used nozzles with threaded ends.

Just so I can sound like a total noob, is this "beckett" the black nozzle with rubber washer/bromett?

I need more info this...

This design you have seems very simple to make but this is also worth checking out.... httpozreef.orgcontentview10229

That's exactly what I am building but this requires no acrylic, glue, or custom parts ( except for the one cut I made with the chop saw ).

Another way to do it is with a cleanout adapter:
