Wow that is long. Getting pins that long in and out might get challenging especially if anything gets tweaked.
Nothing 19" long though. How about to use rod?
Yes, I forgot it, thank you! But vertical or horizontal? Maybe laminate them to make them thicker too?Need to gusset the lower tines
Thank you. Is something common usually on the tractor side?IMO go with SAE/ORB fittings. They seal better and are much nicer to work with especially if you have to take then apart in the future. Generally I like ORB male to JIC male 90 (or 45) degree fittings on cylinders then get female JIC hoses which come with swivels.
There is also ORFS (o-ring face seal) which is about the best for sealing and serviceability, but they aren't as common and more expensive.
Also JIC and ORB use the same thread pitch so in a pinch you can add an o-ring to a JIC male fitting and thread it into an ORB port.
I think the most common would be npt or saeYes, I forgot it, thank you! But vertical or horizontal? Maybe laminate them to make them thicker too?

No, I have never seen that! Thank for the info. Maybe on the next tool, it will save me some time.Polemidis - just curious if you've browsed the patent library for ideas also?
