Believe it or not... My O-ring broke

[EricHill78]

I went to home depot today to no avail. They actually have a chart where I lined up my broken o ring to match the size. There was one that seemed perfect but was too thin.

I'm sure you guys are wondering why it took me so long go to look for a new o ring. I have my icetool jury rigged right now. The o ring split but I just wrap it around then shove the plunger right in. It works ok but I know it'll go kaput soon.

If any of you guys have an extra o ring for the 3ml please let me know. I'll pay whatever you think is fair.

Eric, Did you try a hardware store like Ace or someone local, Sometimes more often than not they will have more than any Home depot will I would also try a Lowe's.... In my area if they don't have it nobody will. But in this case a good ole local hardware store will have a better selection and specialize in something like an 0 ring....

As big as Home Depot is, there's an amazing amount of stuff they don't have. It's shelves full of the same thing. Several times I've gone to Home Depot first cause they're closest to me, only to get what I needed at a real hardware store. I try to go to indies first, but sometimes laziness gets the the better of me :^/

Thanks Jag that's definitely a good idea. I'll bring it again next weekend to a hardware store. Maybe I'll have more luck.

The worker wasn't very friendly. He showed me the o ring section, handed me the guide and walked off. He was very indifferent.
