has any way ever done this before, or had an idea about it ??
i thought if you could get a weaker spring or keep the same one and put a strong one on the hammer this could be an easy way of getting a ready made no leak hammer valve. just by taking the lock ball bearings and outer cover ive just about modified this already. A good thing about this is that you know its no going to leak !! and hopefully go up to highish pressures but i dont have the pumps to do that so ill be staying around 50-150 psi .
ill have to add something to make it move a bit further away from the valve so that the hammer can gain more speed to be able to open the valve.

update #1
ok ive finished the valve and just attached a male adapter to fit my compressor and just by me pushing slightly on the barrel, which is from my A24d which broke the other day so i wanted a new hammer valve so i made this from old parts.
the power is amzing for this little thing

looks like a pretty sweet set up. That is amazing you didnt get any leaks.

yeah well all it is, is a modifed female adapter that male one doenst come in anywhere now but it think i need a weaker spring on the valve. i have installed it in to my gun and im only getting maybe 200fps out of it pretty crap when my other gets around 450 or so and they were all most exactely the same. it either that or i put more rubber bands on the barrel lol

I had the same idea, only I plan on using it to pilot a piston valve.

Piloting a piston valve with a hammer valve? Now where have I seen that before?

I thought the same thing when I saw your cannon.

Yet another egg/chicken thing?

Oh-well, "Great minds think alike!" ?

I tried this before as well, though the power wasn't satisfying enough for me

no its not i agree but its because of that small hole area the air pass through. and if i find a weaker spring it might be better .......
