fitting
Curve fitting is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, possibly subject to constraints. Curve fitting can involve either interpolation, where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing, in which a "smooth" function is constructed that approximately fits the data. A related topic is regression analysis, which focuses more on questions of statistical inference such as how much uncertainty is present in a curve that is fit to data observed with random errors. Fitted curves can be used as an aid for data visualization, to infer values of a function where no data are available, and to summarize the relationships among two or more variables. Extrapolation refers to the use of a fitted curve beyond the range of the observed data, and is subject to a degree of uncertainty since it may reflect the method used to construct the curve as much as it reflects the observed data.
When I disconnected my natural gas cooktop this part was split in two. I have been to big box hardware store and they don't know what it is. Any help naming it and where can I get one. See part and the cooktop attachment.
Thanks for any help!

I have a vintage tank with a tapered brass fitting fixed in.
A new mating fitting is required.
The thread is 7/8" max with 26 tpi and it is tapered.
7/8" 26 is a standard British Standard Brass (BSB) thread, but tapered?
I can find no reference to BSB tapered.
Help?
Has anyone had any issues mix and matching different brands of MLCP pipe & fittings?

I've got an old baby belfast sink I want to use and I'd like to mount it on old brackets... I've done a mock installation in another part of the house just to see how secure it feels on the brackets and I'm happy with the result. If I put a lot of downward wait on the front lip of the...
