I am posting here because I have been told that the e-mail readers don't get the swap meet items.

I am hoping to get the Thetford flange out of a scrap black tank.
Just the flange. It could be hacked out by any possible means.
It should fit in the small flat rate box or even smaller.

I am still working on a manufactureable adapter.
I have the dimensions, but every time I get a chance to look at this part (don't ask) I realize there are issues that I have missed.

The hope is to design one that can be used with a minimum of modification (hoping for none at all) and can be installed easily while one is lying on his back under a jacked up coach. I can tell you it won't be a cheap part, but the combined cost of an adapter and a Valterra valve would still be attractive - if I can get it right.

Matt
