I just near-finished my first pneumatic which was a standard over-under design with a pressure gauge (will post cannon later).
Specs:
2"x3' Air chamber
1" Sprinkler Valve with a standard blowgun
1" Barrel
--------------------------------------------------------
Before i had a sprinkler valve, i used a ball valve for triggering, but at 40psi i was able to shoot a metal bolt into my oakwood tree. Now its stuck and i can't get it out.
Anyways, i took my cannon to 60psi (with sprinkler) and then my cap blows off (I didint prime and cement it). After that happened, i noticed my blow gun was sort of untwisted and when i tried to torque it, it would not become tight again.
Some questions:
1. Is my airchamber more than the sprinkler valve can handle?
2. Should i invest into a 2" sprinkler valve to create a better flow of air?
I am pretty confident the sprinkler valve set-up was done fairly well. I might suspect there is a problem with my choice of parts. Sorry i can't post pics today, my camera requires some repairs. What do you guys think?
Sprinkler valve limit
Really? well, thanks for sharing this information.hatssold wrote:my darned cousin jacked my air chamber full of water. Its a pain in the butt to get out since the sprinkler valve is already taped with teflon
Good luck for your next post.
