Anyone know of a source for a 6" sch 10 lateral pipe wye? I can weld
it up if I can source the peices. OR does anyone have a template for
cutting the pipe.
Customer wants a true "Y" 90 degress between the forks. Anyone?
A lateral wye or a "pair of pants"? Wouldn't a 90 degree lateral be a
tee?
True Wye or as you put it, pair of pants , with each leg at 45 deg to

In either case, I think you'll have to have it fabricated or do it
yourself. Developing a flat pattern isn't hard. Any sheet metal book
and most drafting texts cover it, and I'm sure there are plenty of web
resources. I could make the patterns in Solidworks, but I'd expect to
get paid for the work. I don't do much sheet metal, so I'm not very
fast at it.
Found a web site that sell software for it, their trial does not work,
and I got no response from my email inquiry.
That fitting can be done with mitered cuts on a bandsaw. No pattern or
coping required.
This is a large shop local to me that specializes in this sort of
thing. I'm sure you can find someone similar in your neighborhood.

They only do stainless, My customer wants carbon steel.
I suggested you look for a similar shop close to you. I can think of
at least 5 places within an hour of me that would do it.
