Yeh just go and get another pump, do what benstern suggested or could build a combustion out of spare parts while you wait for the pump.

You could open your fill valve at sea level, close it then go *really* high up and fire it

That or clench your fill valve *really* tightly between your buttocks...

Geez, He doesn't even get to try blowing it up like a balloon?

jackssmirkingrevenge: That would only provide 14.7 psi max, not enough for most pneumatics to work.

Hawkeye: 5-7 psi human lungs rupture

So the obvious way to go is to get lung surgery and have them replaced my mechanical steel versions of normal lungs. DUH!

OMG you guys, this is rediculous. Anyways, get a bike pump, a descent one should cost about 40 bucks.

metos and coke in the chamber or other sutff that produces gas. Or just make a high quality pump for half the price of commercial pumps.

mabey you could use a air compresser for car tires. i brought mine for 10 bucks and it can compress to 250 psi.

it says ur pump broke? So fix it? what kind of pump is it? PM me if its a grey coloured repco one coz mine stopped working and I can tell you how to fix it if yours is the same.

no its a small blue one and it just stoped

If it is an emergency car tire pump, and you were using it on a decent sized chamber, it stopped because it overheated and something melted.

Get a bike pump. Or, if you have some dry ice around, and the chamber is rated for at least 800 psi, use that.

I particularly liked the buttocks comment....

Just spend the 30-40 bucks for a high quality bike pump. Depending on the size of your chamber, a small bike pump might also be used with success and could be attached to the actual gun giving true portability, without having to lug a pump around seperate
