I can only guess here, but when I've been looking for fittings, valves, etc., I've found a number of places that sell stainless hard pipe threaded in various different lengths. It looks like buyfittingsonline.com has some. Others probably have more selection, but they're pretty cheap.

I have been working on my system, got it about 60% done now, waiting on copper tubing for my herms heat exchanger and I think I am going to need another pump. You can still see wiring hanging down underneath.

I dont have a real design in mind, I am just developing it as I go, I am kinda anxious to see how it looks when this is done!!!! I just couldnt wait to post this.

I did a test run on the temp controller/ burner wiring. I think I got it right!!! Was a tough time figuring it out. I still havent gotten the 3 position switches figured out. Ah well, more experimenting with it and it will work.
