What are "Jehmco Logs" that were referred to in a previous post awhile back?

I got to see the Jehmco logs set up on Hellbent's post on the angel forum. It all makes sense to me now.

If you glue your lines, which I recommend, you would need to use soft tubing couplings or male adapters on the ends of the logs. The basic PVC solvent is not going to work properly on those logs. I think they are ABS. A different type of plastic that does not like PVC glue. I have a bunch of the 36's. The valves work really well on these.

I run 5/8" clear tubing from a 'T' off the pump and add the logs around the room where convient...I don't use glue, but perhaps might???...works well now tho...
