... Please correct me if I'm wrong. *Numbers relate to the order connected to regulator
1. Regulator
2. 1/4" MPT x 1/8" MPT hex nipple
3. 1/8" FPT x 1/8" MPT elbow
4. Clippard solenoid
5. 1/8" MPT x 1/8" mpt hex nipple
6. Needle/Meter Valve
7. 1/8" MPT x 1/8" MPT hex nipple
8. JBJ bubble counter
Notice that you have 4 parts listed here and 6 below.

Sealant should be teflon pape or non hardening pipe joint compound
The non-hardening pipe joint compound is a better choice. Teflon tape can splinter and send small pieces into the solenoid.

Swagelok SS part # (relation to the steps above)
1. SS-4-HRN-2
2. SS-4-RB-2
3. SS-2-HN
4. SS-4-ME
5. SS-2-HC-1-2
6. SS-2-HC-7-2
I think I'm missing a step...
What needle/metering valve are you using? Angle or Straight Through??
1. SS-4-HRN-2
(OK)
2. SS-4-RB-2
(not needed since you are using the SS-4-HRN-2)
The elbow is missing. SS-2-SE Street Elbow, 1/8 in. Female NPT x 1/8 in. Male NPT
solenoid
3. SS-2-HN
(OK)
1/8" FPT metering valve
4. SS-4-ME
(not needede)
need another SS-2-HN
5. SS-2-HC-1-2
(not needed with JBJ BC)
6. SS-2-HC-7-2
(not needed with JBJ BC)
____________________________________
Here's the above so that you can read it better. ... Assuming that you have a 1/8" female NPT needle/metering valve.
regulator
SS-4-HRN-2 Hex Reducing Nipple, 1/4 in. Male NPT x 1/8 in. Male NPT
SS-2-SE Street Elbow, 1/8 in. Female NPT x 1/8 in. Male NPT
solenoid
SS-2-HN Hex Nipple, 1/8 in. Male NPT
1/8" Female NPT x 1/8" Female NPT needle /metering valve
SS-2-HN Hex Nipple, 1/8 in. Male NPT
JBJ BC
another way using the same style of needle/metering valve
regulator
SS-4-RB-2 Reducing Bushing, 1/4 in. Male NPT x 1/8 in. Female NPT
SS-2-ME Male Elbow, 1/8 in. Male NPT
solenoid
SS-2-HN Hex Nipple, 1/8 in. Male NPT
1/8" Female NPT x 1/8" Female NPT needle /metering valve
SS-2-HN Hex Nipple, 1/8 in. Male NPT
JBJ BC

Anyways in order to do this set up (zip tieing)
http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/private.php?do=showpm&pmid=853351
or jonny_ftm's set up...What steps do I skip?
Your link is to one of your PM's. I can't view it.
The JBJ BC attaches similar to what jonny_ftm is using. See SMOQ's post.
What are you wanting to zip-tie? The tubing?? Not needed with the JBJ BC.
