Alright so i have my BBMG just about finished, it only needs a few more little tweaks, but i keep sprining leaks around my blow gun, its just on of those cheapy ony you use on air compressors.

I see alot of people with the same concept as me, the handle just sticks out of the tube, but theres never leaks like mine does, it might be because my bbmg is inside of an aluminum tube, not sure. but a wide majority of the gas shoots out around the glow gun.

the nozzle of the blowgun itself sticks into the vortex block, and it is a very tight fit, so i dont really understand how you guys avoid leaks. I also tried numerous epoxies to try to glue the handle into the block, but not of them hold, they all break off eventually. If anybody had some tips or methods it would be great. thanks.
