Did you do the pressure testing your self?


Yes, I did.

Just build a barrel sealing piston valve. Unless you're shooting for some insanely high pressure, it shouldn't be too difficult to throw together, especially in copper fittings, which are nice and smooth on the inside.

Also, I DID NOT use gunpowder on that pipe. I used 5 grams of Al/KClO4 flash powder
