    Anyone have a source for macro elbows?

    My stash of elbows is empty. Wondering if anyone knows the measurements for them or a good place to buy about 5-10 at a time

    Is it, 1/8npt threads with a 1/4" push connect?

      I'll check what I've got. Must they all be matching?

        No, it would be nice if at least a few of them match if I have a project that requires 2 but yeah it's not a necessity

          Would these work?

          I've also come across some that the macro side is just a little too small for most macro, anyone know how to avoid these in the future or what the problem was?

            I’m in the same boat. Not a lot of Canadian paintball places are selling 90s, just straight fittings. At $10 per fitting though, it’s pricey and shipping is on top. Right now I have a stalled cocker project because I need a 90 and I want to have a couple spares in the toolbox.

              Have you used these before?

                Nummech fittings are also cool.

                    They look like camozzi fittings which suck. Don't get them. I promise. Hard work to make the macro seat and then chews up the hose quite a bit. Harder edges and uglier.

                    Get Norgren fittings for 5 dollars or whatever each. They are the best. From airsoldier or anywhere.

                      I don't see a combo pack on there unfortunately. Most places want like 11 dollars a fitting so this is a lot cheaper. It sucks there isn't a combo pack because sometimes you really do want 1 or the other type of fitting. Overall if you could only have 1 fitting type though, the swivel 90 is the best.

                      I love when I can use a fixed 90 though and have something dead nuts where I want it and it all works out, but usually the swivel feature makes it a lot easier to take the line on and off and such.

                      Is there really no one selling norgren fittings for less than a rip off per each?

                      Hmm here 5 dollars each maybe see what shipping adds up to http://www.macrolineguy.com/categori...oline-Fittings

                        Going to go ahead and triple post here. I would consider ANSGEAR https://www.ansgear.com/32_Degrees_M...crolinekit.htm

                        They also have individual parts you can bundle with another order to get free shipping which might work for you https://www.ansgear.com/SearchResult...oline&submit=+
