I think all I really need to be able to do is run a standard garden hose off of it. I might rig it up to a rainbird or two, but a 3/4" discharge line is probably all I need. During the summer it...

Seems interesting. Looks like it cuts, brushes, and sands! They're a bit pricey though for the amount of copper I do, which isn't much. Looks like it...
