Default Stainless lines and fittings, free for the taking

Western Couplings at Mojave Airport has thrown away an entire dumpster
full of stainless flex lines and couplings of every size and shape
imaginable. They're in a big blue dumpster next to the UPS building.

It's too far away for me to scrounge, but I thought I'd let people know.

Hmm, 140 miles, Scaled Composites would probably beat me to 'em.

Scaled and X-Cor have already picked over the pile, there's still a
couple of thousand pounds left.

A couple of thousand pounds? Holy cow. Why are they being tossed?

Not sure. I HOPE it's old stuff that they were tired of keeping on the
shelf, but it's a pretty big pile for that. I HOPE it's not a going
out of business thing (and I have no indication that it is)
