its probably the regulator that is limiting me. i have an old compressor that actually just quit on me. its about 30 years old. im about to go buy a new one tomorrow with a 33 gallon tank.

I can only get about 100psi in my steel cannon. How do you get more than that in there?. I have a regular ole shop air compressor.

Im adding another section for the chamber, a longer barrel and a qev this weekend. And I will be getting rid of some of that dead space. Cant wait to paint it. Ill probably put some kind of barrel shroud on it too. Its gonna be wicked when Im done.

Nah I got it to work in Vista. Just wouldnt work when I double clicked it for some reason. But it dont matter much cause most of this stuff on here is above my friggin head anyway.

i used what i had. didnt buy anything

i think they are 2" my bad

What is the chamber volume on it? What is the point of that union on the end of the chamber? Is it used as a safety valve? Haha. My brain cant calculate volume. but they are 3" in diameter. I cant remember the length. The union on the end of the chamber is what i had to use to cap off the end. Ther...

This is my second try at a pneumatic. This one is all steel. I had a bucket of pipe fitting parts so it was like putting together a puzzle without knowing if all the pieces are there. I wish I could say there was a "plan" when I built it but there wasnt. This is what I had available. The barrel is 1...

yeah the valve worked. it had a guide rod in it too until i drilled it out.

thanks for your help man.

where can i buy the proper qev valve?
