Directions for putting nipples into pipe

OPTION 1 Starting with chicken watering nipples
The nipples are designed for low pressure systems.  The maximum water pressure is to be 5.5 psi. (pounds per square inch).  There are two ways to get water to the nipples.  The first one, which we do not suggest is thru a hose and a pressure reducing valve put into the connection between the hose and the brass adapter.  The second way is to hook up the hose to a water container like a bucket.  We tried a couple methods and scoured the internet to figure out how to make them not leak in the joints.  We realize this is not necessarily the best method, but it is the best we could think of.  Please add your input.

Here are the supplies you will need to get this part of the chicken waterer built.  Call it what you will, a nippleator, or a canteen, but what it does is deliver the water to the birds.  The supply list is as follows:  

Parts list for assembly for 4 nipples:  3/4 inch pvc pipe, 3/4 pvc end cap, 3/4 slip joint to threaded 3/4 female, garden hose to length, brass threaded male 3/4 inch to garden hose thread le.

Tools List: saw for plastic,  tape measure, pencil, straight edge, drill, 11/32 drill bit, tap and handle with a 10mm x 1mm pitch.  This was bought here at the local hardware store for $12.00,pipe wrench.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Step 1.  Cut the 3/4inch pipe so it has 2 inches on either end and then 6 inches between nipples.

Mark a straight line on the pipe.

                                              Step 2   Put a x where the nipples will go.

                                             Step 3  Drill the nipple holes and try to hold pipe still.

Step 4 Use tap to thread the pipe.  Try to hold at a perpendicular angle to pipe.

Step 5 Wrap teflon tape arouond nipples.  Wrap teflon tape 3 or 4 times around nipple in the opposite direction of the threads.

Step 6.  Be careful to only tighten once or twice past hand tight.

Step 7 Glue the ends.  Put primer on first.

  Step 8 Put teflon tape on the male end of the 3/4 inch threaded brass fitting.
