I am gonna make a vortex (or so I think) and I think I want it to run off co2, but the only problem is I don't know what I need to buy to regulate the co2, can i just take apart my a-5 paintball gun that no one will buy and use that? I am still in design state and instead of multiple topics I will just make this one.

Thanks again spudfiles!

the best place to buy CO2 regs and tanks is on the internet.
But you are going to want to have a local place you can get CO2 from like a paintball

Well this is my design. Will it be ok to use co2 with pressure rated tubing? And can someone tell me a good regulator?
