*My Pfister kitchen faucet has an odd thread, it's 3/4" -27 thread per inch male, this most likely will not be what you need, 55/64 is far more common.

<Hey HBT, I'll be brewing in my garage which is not heated and my kitchen sink is far too small to wash 15gal kettles. I need a solution that allows me to wash large items and it has to be able to be disconnected from a water source. I've come up with a plan for a mobile sink that will hook up to a garden hose and allow me to wheel it around and take it outside. This is still in the planning phase as of now but I'll list the parts that I'm looking at using as well as a sketch. The drain garden hose will be dedicated to drain only, I have an old hose that I'll lop the end off to makes sure there aren't any mixups. I know that there are a lot of quick connects in there but it's to make life easy/make sure that all water is drained effectively after use.
So, anyone build something like this? If so any input/links to build threads would be awesome .>
<Hey HBT, thanks for all the responses everyone. At this point I've done a fair amount of modifying of the original plan but I think it's going to work out. I moved the original text of the post to the bottom. I have bought everything on the list and at this point I'm just waiting for the sink to arrive (Wed). I'll update this more when the sink arrives. Thanks again for the thoughts/ideas .>
