I have a very big predicament. I am struggling to find fittings that I can use for a custom loop. The loop if for my son, and I have very basic notations of the rig here. I do not have a price limit, nor a color limit (I'll paint it), but I do need to find all the required fittings somewhere around the first week of Janurary, as my son's birthday is Janurary Tenth.
Thank you for helping my irresponsibility

Hi,

I have found out how many fittings you will need for you Son's build. With the amount of parts he has he will need 22 fittings but I would recommend getting at least an extra one as you will need it to fill up the computer. I have left a link for 2 types of fittings that I think would suit him the best for his system.

Monsoon (Normal) Fittings : http://www.performance-pcs.com/monsoon-free-center-compression-fittings-3-8-x-1-2-single-matte-black.html
Monsoon (Chaingun) Fittings : http://www.performance-pcs.com/monsoon-chain-gun-compression-fittings-3-8-x-1-2-single-chrome.html

(I'am sorry if you find this cheaper somewhere else, I'am from England so I'am not used to buying/searching up parts from US websites)

You can buy these...

Hi,

What type of fittings do you need or prefer? There are compression fittings with a screw ring that can help more or there are barbs that are less secure, you will also need to know the sizes of fittings that match the tubing that your son is getting or you have got him. Also, what country are you from if you do not mind me asking or do you have a nearby store that I would be able to look for as it would be easy for me to help you find the right fittings for his build.

Please feel free to contact me through this post at anytime you like, I may be a bit slow depending on where I'am and what time it is.

Thanks,
Simon

You can buy these fittings as individual components or as a six-pack. They range from $7-$8 each and are one of the cheaper options to go for.
For tubing, he will need to get some 3/8" (Inner diameter) and 1/2" (Outer diameter), here is a link to some: http://www.performance-pcs.com/primoflex-b-advanced-lrt-b-tubing-3-8in-id-x-1-2in-od-crystal-clear.html#Specifications The price for this is price per feet, so 12 inches or 30cm.

I hope this helped you and if you need assistance again, contact me and I will do what I can.

Thanks,
Simon

Thank you so much Simon. Thanks to your help, I was able to go out to a local store and purchase a pack of 25 fittings, and they fit perfectly! I can't thank you enough!
