I'm werking on a project mag and I plan on using an old skool SS body. My problem comes in that I have a nasty habit of destroying those plastic elbows. There have been days I've gone through two of them and quite honestly the $3 adds up when your spending it almost everytime you play. Now onto my question, does anybody currently or has anyone in the past made or seen an aluminium elbow for a powerfeed? Is sit even possible to make such a beast? Or am I to resign myself to ordering cases of the disposible plastic ones? Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Nigh involnurable elbow?

Those old VL elbows are indestructable. I don't see how anyone could possibly break one.
The hard plastic tightening ones suck. Get your hands on some old soft plastic / hard rubber whatever the hell they were VL elbows.
You can even make them tightening by dremeling some slots in them and using pipe clamps. Then not only are they tightening, but they are still indestructable.

I didn't know you could still get those. I have an old one and it is great. The hard plastic ones below it suck.Originally posted by MuzikmanComment

Also, a visit to the plumbing supply section and a little paint that'll stick to copper and you're all set.
