Nothing fancy. Just like an air flow gizmo for the fish tank. Piece of brass close fit into the frame down far enough so the port hole will intersect. Side of brass was drilled in just enough to get the feed tube to fit for solder. Drilled into this just past the halfway point and I think it was the tap drill for an 8/32. Drilled down from the top all the way through with the same tap drill. Threaded down that hole so when the screw goes down it covers up the inlet hole and well not really regulate the flow but rather restricts it. Works
I just didn't like the look of a hose sticking out from the top and that's all I could think of to avoid that. Rest was made from 3/4 plate and bits of brass, bronze, couple screws and such.
Suddenly I feel like chasing the stick HMM?? :)

Is that your own design or a modified one?
