Default AWE pressure tester. (Home Depot P/Ns)

For those looking for Home Depot P/Ns to make the AWE pressure tester.
Couldn't find a good non-threaded cap at the Depot, so I screwed two PVC pieces together. This stuff should be standard at most HDs.

3" PVC threaded cap (Nibco 4818)
3" PVC threaded extension (Nibco 4803-2)
3" to 3" rubber straight joining clamp (Fernco 1056-33) (comes with two metal worm clamps)
Standard 1/4" air coupler (AMFLO CP21)(B for Brass if you want)
Only thing left to find is the 7/8" cap for the PCV branch off the Y-pipe.

I used teflon tape on the PVC pipe threads. Don't think it was really necessary, but just wanted to be sure.
Looks good will try it this weekend.

Thanks again to AWE for the idea and parts list.
