Building from the back to the front:
2" End Cap
2 feet of 2" PVC
2" Coupler
2" x 3/4" bushing
3/4" PVC (2" long)
3/4" male adapter
3/4" sprinkler valve
3/4" male adapter
3/4" PVC (2" long piece)
2" x 3/4" bushing
2" coupler
3 feet of 2" PVC
Shouldn't cost more than $30, and $30 is Bay Area prices, almost anywhere else will be much cheaper.

Pressurize it with a bike pump that has a pressure guage on it.
