@saefroch Re-read my last post.

@Mrcrowley The screws went in before I knew about the leaks... They went in incase the glue busted....

@mark.f This is a good lesson, never try to make this sort of airtank again, until I get better tools and more money to spend on it.

Well, with the space I have to fire my gun, I need to think about saftey... I have literally about 50 feet worth of firing space, and the gun has a top of 150 feet at only 5 psi....

I sealed the screw holes with epoxy when I re glued everything... I guess it was the screws that caused the leaks...

I tested everything, about 10 times each. The leak is actually pretty new, started about 6 hours ago. Its since stopped, and holds air, but honestly, I wont even take this thing past 50 psi simply because I dont want fatiuge to get to it... The joints are holding pretty well, and my mom is going to ...

Nice ideas Tech, but maybe something that would be safe to use in a airsoft or paintball war? I like the .50 cal idea, but I dont think I will use those, from a saftey stand point....

Its not a bad leak, honestly. I have put screws into it to keep the joints from blowing apart, and I think that may be the source of the leak. But I am still going to epoxy everything. It cost me too much time and effort to discard, so I will take my chances....

Yeah, I did a 1/4 turn. Its the joints for sure though, and I dont know exactly where, so I just put epoxy around the entire joint. I am getting a big thing of epoxy some time soon, and I am gonna seal it, then try it again. If you have any ideas, let me know.

I have the pvc cement already in place. The airtank has been cemented, but it wont hold pressure above 2 bar. I expoxied one spot where it was leaking, and it sealed it; but then another spot opened up. Any suggestions for that?

Air tank sealing problem.

What should I use to reseal my pvc air tank? I have 15 more joints to seal, and I ran out of epoxy. Anything that would be a common house hold item that I could use? I have some pvc cement if that helps?

Take the cheapest radar you can buy, and tweak it a bit to work at higher altitudes and so on. Easy enough right?
