the top hat washer is just used to spread the area that is next to the box, its a strength thing

they are used normally where a sink tap sites under the sink top, just for strength again

And do you find or would I find that with a 100psi flojet pump pumping through that and a couple more hozelock fittings that they will leak? Or will they generally be ok and just fail after a while. Really would not want to make this if
it would be dripping water out!!  :)

they last well enough, my first box is a good few years old and still has the same fittings on, as i rarely undo them, thus less wear

Ok mate, as long as thaving a few hoselock fittings is cool and they dont dribble water out, think I will make this tomo. Also make something up to have a external van port!

So excited about using Wfp.
Got a very little estate that I have about 12 houses on, but there is about 40 houses with loft windows, Already have two waiting, And just before Xmas am going to knock all of them and hopefully secure them on my new equipment.
Cant wait lol......

if you do find they leak over time, many change them for rectus fittings, i have a set in my spares box, never used them

You would save 50 quid and it you shop around for the pump even more.
