Q:

Angular JS, filter table with a select box

I have a table.  I want to filter the table depending on which value is choosen in an select box.  The comparison value is {{pipe.pipe_id}} in the select box and {{dimension.pipe_id}} in the table.  Guess there's a simple solution for this?  Any suggestion? 
Pipe:
    <select  id="select01">
        <option ng-repeat="pipe in pipes">{{pipe.code}} - {{pipe.title_en}}</option>
    </select>  

    <table class="table table-striped">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>Pipe</th>
                <th>Size</th>
                <th>Inner diameter</th>
                <th>Outer diameter</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            <tr ng-repeat="dimension in dimensions" >
                <td>{{dimension.pipe_id}}</td>
                <td>{{dimension.nominalsize}}</td>
                <td>{{dimension.innerdiameter}}</td>
                <td>{{dimension.outerdiameter}}</td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>

I would recommend using the ng-filter. 
This link is a simple example using a to-do list. 
jsfiddle using ng-filter
You will need to bind whatever input you are using with ng-model="varname"
The ng-filter defaults to all fields in the array.   It can be filtered to a single column or point to a function in your controller. 
Search Field
<select ng-model="searchparam">
   <option value="1">One</option>
   <option value="2">Two</option>
</select>

To Search a single column
<select ng-model="searchparam.columnOne">
   <option value="1">One</option>
   <option value="2">Two</option>
</select>

Repeated Section
(the filter model stays the same even when your input specifies a specific column)
<tr ng-repeat="dimension in dimensions | filter: searchparam">
     <td>{{dimension.columnOne}}</td>
     <td>{{dimension.columnTwo}}</td>
</tr>
