I know a lot of members here have equipment from Joe Woodworker and are familiar with the information on his site. I just ordered a V2+pro system and thought others might be interested in a build along thread. Anyone else who has built one or is in the process feel free to join in and show pictures, otherwise this might be a really short thread! Most report that the actual build only took 2-3 hours.
Joe is in Maryland and I ordered the day of the big snowstorm, my shipment is a little delayed according to UPS. Since I'm eager to get started I went shopping for some of the extra supplies needed for the build. The hardest part to track down was the 3" PVC. I called a few plumbing supply houses and everyone had 20' lengths for $2.20/ft. Home Depot had one piece jammed at the back of the rack and when I asked was told they just found it in the remodel. Since it wasn't in the system they ended up charging me $5. for the whole 20'! So if anyone is in the area and needs some PVC for this project, I have plenty left over.
I thought I had the1/4" NPT tap but it isn't in my set so back to the hardware store one more time.
