OK, I know we have beat the horse to death on this topic (sorry for that
refrence, Tim), but I have a final question...

I got a $150 gift certificate for FarmTek (for coming in as a runner up in
their contest for the best use of their buiilding this year.  Here is a
link to the contest in case you are interested...

Anyway, back to the question, since I have been planning on finalyl putting
a more perment solution to air lines in my shop, I thought it would be
great to use the certificate on air lines.

Here is the problem, I can't tell if there tubing is approprate for air
lines.

Now, I've seen alot of discussion on using copper, iron, or PEX tubing for
home compressor situations.  Does anyone have any final words on it?  Also,
is there any problem making it a mix of the above?

Farmtek on sells, this tubing for radiant floors.

  Could I use this stuff in the 1" diameter for most of the tubing? (with
the "Shark Bite" connectors)

Or, is there piping on this page that could be used?

I can't tell what most of that piping is.  Maybe someone in the biz can let
me know if want of this will work.

Thanks in advance!
