i personally wouldn't try to make your own.

they are about $15 at most, however you can find them for a dollar or two if you look hard enough.

to late, did the research. brazed my fitting on the npt side and redrilled it 1/16th opposed the the 1/8th it was not hard at all and only takes a few mins

usually that hole is smaller then 1/16th, but i'm sure that will be okay. i'm not really a fan of brazing.
