Get a 12 inch Speedy and loop it. Hold it with a couple zip ties.
Is the bull of the Tee for a dishwasher? Where's the valve for that?0 -
I use a 3/8" nut x 3/8" compression connector. I remove the nut and ferrule off the compression side and it screws into the end of the supply line on your faucet. The nut end screws into the valve.
Do not get a nut x nut supply line. It only has female threads.

you can get 3/8" supply lines with a compression fitting soldered on one end, that would do it.0

Lol. You think they’re going to solder? Or know how to, based on what they posted. They won’t even go buy a longer connector.mattmia2 said:you can get 3/8" supply lines with a compression fitting soldered on one end, that would do it.

Well, yes. I sort of assumed the OP had already thought of using a simple mail to female connector -- either flexy hose or what have you... and rejected that option. Silly me.Br. Jamie, osb

The compression ferrule and nut (either the one that came with the stop valve or the one from the riser) connects the copper tube end of the riser to the supply stop and the nut and gasket deal on the faucet supply hose connects to the compression fitting on the riser.0

Thanks for the help. That doesn’t look like male to female though no? That’s what I’m having difficulty finding.Redhawk24 said:
Ah... take the nut and ferrule off one end and connect that end to the faucet connector... connect the other end, with it's nut and ferrule still on, to the valve...Br. Jamie, osb

You can just get a regular supply line and a 3/8 compression by 1/2" male adapter. Screw the supply line onto the valve, and use the adapter between this line and the one from the faucet.

This is the one I showed you. A plumbing supply company or Ace Hardware store should have them in stock.

If they only have a nut x nut supply connector (the second picture from my original post), purchase a 3/8" compression coupling and remove the nuts and ferrules to change one end from female to male.

There are a hundred ways to do this if you get a piece of 3/8" copper tubing and venture in to the fittings section.0
