Hi! I'm looking for a tool to attach a a 1st stage regulator to a bench vise using either the 7/16" HP port or the 3/8" LP port (see image). I prefer that it be made of brass as I am afraid that a steel tool can mar the O-ring groove or damage the thread. Alternately could you point to a machine shop that could make the tool for me.
On a large pile of smokin' A'a, the most isolated population center on the face of the earth. 2,175 miles to Alaska, 2,390 miles to California; 3,850 miles to Japan; 4,900 miles to China; 5,280 miles to the Philippines.
I refuse to believe that corporations are people until Texas executes one.

PAO,
I used a guy in CC to make me a specialty tool and it came out exact to specifications. It was a brass tool that I use as a oil/water seperator. I believe that any reputable machine shop can make you one. I would recommend that whatever you make have the portion which fits in the vise have as much surface area posible so that it will be less likely to accidently turn in the vise.
