thanks for all the positive feedback!!!! im making a basic gun as it is cuz its my first piston valve gun... i havent finished that one yet... im thinking i might figure a way to apply this to it... ill add some sketches soon lol thermo test friday gotta study!!!

like the accuracy, clean build, and like the 3D modeling... very nice and well thought out!

Its always more fun to make it yourself i think. besides then i have to pay for co2 and a regulator... id rather just make it out of 5 dollars worth of parts and be able to use my compressor... or even scale this down and have it just attach to a smaller gun... maybe make a quick connect setup so i ...

the whole goal is to achieve several shots with this puppy... Im thinkin the main chamber will have an airtight piston, sealed with an o ring most likely... this will have a very strong spring behind it so that when you pressurize it from in front of the piston the spring compresses... then as the c...

I kept thinking about how big the pilot was. That's really the shortest I could make it. I mean I guess I coulda just put an elbow on there and threaded the shrader through it but a tee seemed like the best idea. And thanks Im gonna try sanding it down when I get home from college. Hopefully that wo...

This is my first piston gun!!!! welcome to the big leagues lol... well not yet because its not done but close enough. Well i got the parts and put this together this weekend... still cant get the piston to seal quite right yet... Although i haven't glued it together yet and actually tried it at high...

well for starters this is the valve, http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100066494&N=10000003+90401 I bought it from home depot obviously. Now if i can only modify it.... top screws off instead of being held in with scre...

O really. This is from a year or two ago so I don't really remember. I usually check the parts to see the pressure rating that's usually put on there somewhere. I don't think I have gone above 50 psi good thing I guess. I'm gonna scrap it anyway for my piston gun soon.

This is one of my first pneumatics. It uses a coaxial idea, meaning the barrel is in the compression chamber, but there is no piston, just one lame sprinkler valve. This is the only picture I have of this right now, I will take more when i go home for the weekend, but you cant see the whole thing. T...

anyone help me with modifying this valve?

called the Toro 1 In. In-Line Jar Top Valve with Flow Control

I'm trying to think of a way to create a piston valve that rotates. Basically instead of moving back and forth in a pipe it would rotate... and ideas how to do this?
