Spacer fabrication

The first step is to fabricate a spacer: basically a 14mm diameter cylinder with a 10 mm hole in the middle (see plans below). You can use M14 threaded rod a screw as it is easily available, but a 14 mm round stock is ok.

Using a drill and a vise, drill a 10 mm hole trough the hole spacer.

Make sure your spacer fits nicely in both the male connector and the 1/4 inch adaptor to prevent leakage later on.
