I'm adding a RO filter to my brewery. Instead of the normal cheap faucet that are usually associated with RO systems (that I don't want to drill into my nice staineless sink)...I am thinking about putting a bulkhead thru the wall above my sink. The bulkhead would ideally present a liquid ball lock post (on the front)...that way I could take a ball lock fitting and whatever line I needed to get me to my pot/bucket. The back would accept some adapted form of the 1/4" polyethylene tubing.

Has anyone done something similar?
 
I've put many gas and beer posts through my keezer and brewery fridges.

Start with a 1/4" MFL-MFL bulkhead like this:

Add a ball lock beer post adapter like this one for Firestone posts:

Don't forget the 1/4" nylon bushing for the bulkhead-adapter connection.

Top it off with a matching ball lock beer post and you're in business...

Cheers!
