Outdoor Kitchen Island - New Gas Line for the Cooktop, Part 1

Collecting all the adapters, fittings and tubing to make a new higher flow gas line for the natural gas cooktop.

The gas valve has an M8x1 female thread and the gas burner has an M13x1 female thread, both set up for compression fittings. It seems the burner is designed to accept up to an M8 inlet tube diameter. Lots of searching finally located the name/description of the fitting needed, that being a Norgren / Enots compression tube nut. For the valve end, an adapter to step up from M8x1 to 1/8" NPT and then a 1/4" compression fitting facilitated the transition to the M8 tube. All the adapters on the valve end were drilled out to the same ID as the 1/4" copper tube and the length of that was kept to a minimum.
