LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

Morning ya'll
We are looking for spray nozzle/handle that has threaded inlet in the end of the handle and is straight (not bent like normal sink sprayers or garden hose sprayers.
We want to install a fitting on the sink,and then have a long hose say 6 foot long and then have the sprayer on the end,I will put a spring over the hose and then attacht to the wall with a spring,kind of like a dish washer at a rstaurant...
but i want to build it cheap no multi hundreds of $$$$$
Lisa says just use a sink sprayer it'll be fine,I want to be able to grab it and just squeeze the handle and have water come out the bottom.

not have it twisted up with the hose hanging and swinging to the side like an angle head would cause

I tried ebay...thousands of hits, lots of angled sprayers and then of course the high dollar faucets...any ideas?

did consider twist on brass type garden hose end...problem is you need 2 hands to turn on

Sorry so long winded

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

How about something like this?
http://www.amazon.com/Dramm-22730-To.../dp/B0009PM25W

with this attatched
http://www.amazon.com/Ez-Flo-15001-E...ds=shower+head

About $14 not counting shipping.

Now you've given me something else to consider Years ago I used a garden hose nozzle in a a small camper. It's a great way to conserve water.

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

That one is around $100. Why even mess with building one?

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

Cold beverage my ass. You're trying to trick me. Do you have a secret desire to be a dishwasher? If you want to play with one of those faucets, you can probably get a job at a restaurant and get paid to play with one while you clean the dishes.

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

Now...now...my first job at 16 was "a DMO"
Dish Machine Operator
Wife wants one and I agree most dishes and pots when we are out and about are a pain to wash when youhave to manipulate them under some stupid little fixed spray.....so we are going Big...
We like to boil things like shell fish and pasta and chili,beans etc that require big cooking vesells,and we end up cooking for lots of folks....Mama says "no one goes hungry around us"...it's a country thing

Re: LOOKING FOR A "FAUCET"

I was going to put one in my bus also. The sink is going to be big too. I like industrial styling.
