    Lads,

    Any ideas where I cold find a filter that would go onto the end of a 3/4 inch gravity fed water pipe (for cows), my problem is that it keeps filling with gravel. Any solutions or pratical suggestions would be appreciated. The local coop says go to a speicalist, they are quoting €60...all I want is something like a coke bottel with holes what will fit on the end of it.

    Thanking ye.

    why dont you just buy a sediment filter, the housing will take 3/4 pipe

    ya you put on a copper fitting which will thread into the housing and attach your pipe to the other end of fitting,
    there is a filter in the housing which can either be washable or disposable, any big builder suppliers should have them or if you go to golden pages for water treatment you should find loads of places
