I bought a 1.5 gal water dispenser from Canadian Tire.. it ended up splitting at the bottom.. though I suspect it was due more to the pressure of how I had it sitting than anything. Needless to say. I have to come up with a new Kalk dripper..

where did you get the 3/8 jg valve from?? HD?? that connects to the valve on the container right?? then you just connected a tube to the 3/8 jg valve right??? because my kalk dripper made of out a container like the one chad has splits too. And the one that you bought from Canadian tire looks more sturdy

It is very thick plastic. I got the valve from HD. I think it was $7-8 :eek: But worth it!
