T-mex through ebay does bsp standard size pipe fittings.
They come in 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 sizes. I think 3/8 size is probably good.
You would need a 3/8 bsp tap and a drill the right size though.
They are blue in colour and made of pp. Good for HHO with some gas ptfe tape
on the threads to seal. Also they have different barb fittings for many combinations and size of pipe.

Other vendors sell these also on ebay. They also do nitrile o ring in different
diameters if you have any use for that. Delivery is very quick with them I
got nitrile o ring, pvc glue and 3/8 barbed fittings in two or three orders.
Always very quick to deliver.

I'm replying to myself:eek:, in previous post I said 3/8 but in fact 1/4 bsp tap and fittings are probably the best size, the tap is cheaper also.
