Worst case is that the knife valve doesn't allow you to perfectly tune the Herbie. All that means is that you'll have a small trickle flowing down the emergency pipe. No big deal...just not perfectly silent.
Well I shouldnt really be in such a big hurry but I have 6 QT tanks all over the apartment and a few friends staying with me a a week and a half. I really wanted to have everything done soon and I have a few days off now. I really do not want to rush things though. I will look for the Gate Valve tomorrow from either EMCO or this place called Pioneer Plumbing (they claim to have all kinds of rare plumbing). Hopefully I find one! I have to go to the same area to get glass cut for my overflow tomorrow anyways.
