Ok. I got everything on my list to add a second 4" fan as an exhaust fan and hook the chiller up to the Rainforest. The very first thing I try to do, I am stuck on.
I got 2 fittings to put into the Rainforst to run the two 1/2" tubes into and out of the chiller. They are 1/2" fittings to match the 1/2" tubes. The guy at the store told me to drill 5/8" holes to put the rubber washers in, then slide the fitting through the installed rubber washer.
The problem is that the 5/8th hole isn't anywhere close to being big enough to fit the rubber washer into. I've tried for over an hour, even using vaseline, and there is just now way. The hole is WAY too small.
Did the guy at the store tell me the wrong thing? Do I actually need a 3/4" hole to fit a 1/2" fitting into? I don't see how this rubber washer could ever be made to fit into a 5/8 hole.
