got a nice tube at K-mart... for like $7 and some plastic glue for $3 so a realy cheap tube
just drilled out a hole.. glued some pvc tube that i had lying around in to attach the pump to. i realy would have liked a proper attachment like on thats on the LAPDIST pumps, but though i would just try this first, if it works well ill get one of those attachments.
heres 2 photos, i havent used it yet. tell you how it goes later.

hi
where in k mart did you get tube what was is a type of bottle do you have bar code?
no to make the pump connection I suggest you go to Bob Jane tyres & obtain a tyre fittingwhich suits rims it has a trhread & 2 rubber seal to go each side of drilled hole take out valve & use 1/4" clear plasrtic tube to connect to pump works a dream but I am still having trouble finding a a good tube

it was in the section with all the lunch boxes and plastic containers. i have already thrown out the label... but if i remember corectly, the brand was willow...and it was 3 ltrs..
i have no trouble with the conection ive made now. works awesome. tried it last night, air and water. only problem i had was where my cock and balls go in, the plastic digs into my skin and starts to hurt after about an hour. so i need to find some rubber to go over the opening.
any segestions?
heres me in use.. first 5 mins

seal material
I purchased some liquid plastic used for making fishing lures. Heat it up and either make yourself a mould, or just dip it in the hot liquid to form a soft plastic seal.

making your own seal/cusion for any tube.
hopefully this will spark you creative minds and think of what you can use for inexpensive seals fo your tubes.
I hope this helps. keep in mind the plumbing sections have all different sizes of rubber seals and the like . short of taking your tube with you , i have had some seals i could not use.( too hard,wouldnt stretch, etc...) Trial and error. at least it will not cost as much, as most of the are made to last many years. I have even bought just the plunger that you would use on your toilet. have to cut a hole but that has worked too. and the stick is always extra and you dont need that,
