push pop pneumatic

cardinals08 · Thu Feb 16, 2006 8:14 pm

Has anyone tried making a piston valve pneumatic gun out of one of these? The thing inside could be used as the piston. All you would have to do is slap a barrel on and attach a schrader valve and possibly drill a couple small holes in the piston and you would be done. It would probably be a good Idea to sleeve it because I dont know how much pressure one of these could hold.

XD
you can always tie a dozen hose clamps on the make it safer

you need to make a cap for the bottom, think eproxy.
unrelated but you get the idea i hope

why do I need to make a cap? you mean to make the bottom stronger? or to enclose the bottom(some are open on the bottom because some arent spring loaded to push the pop up), because the one I ate is completely closed on the bottom

that'll blow up in your hand. its not strong enough.

thats why I said it would be a good Idea to sleeve it

I think it would work if you did it right. It might be a bit faulty as that is a 2 dollar piece of plastic. Nice idea, I think itll work.

I might get around to making it, if the one i have will fit nicely in some copper tubing I will start it in a week or so, getting my drivers license about that time to be able to go get parts

***PUFF!***

as for the push pop, i think its too cheezy for a pneumatic, maybe at like 10 psi it would be safe

Why wouldnt it be safe for higher pressure if I sleeved it in copper pipe?

it will be safer cause the copper wont burst into shrapnel like cheap nylon does.

too bad JOKES arent taken too lightly...

ok nicholai lets avoid using that kind of term... some ppl get offended by it... further more it is completley irrelevant

Shrimphead · Fri Feb 17, 2006 6:52 pm

Agreed. That has gone waaayyyyy to far.

i get the one where you stick your fingers in.
this might work, but i have very poor eproxy mixing skills.
the one you had can be used too

it probably wouldnt hold the pressure. i exclusivley use metal for my pneumatics,i dont even trust pvc!

use putty type epoxy, not the liquid.
its a lot easier to mix than a puddle of goopy stuff. its like mixing black and white play doh to get grey play doh
