So this is the spark plug Zeus was talking about. i must say i wasn't expecting it to look that fancy, nice work.

excellent craftsmanship! wood stocks always look best IMO. what colour will you be staining it?

That thing is amazing, true work of art matey!

jeeze! bloody lucky that one didnt hit you in the head!

just another battle scar

i took a golf ball to the forehead at about 100-115 psi, i dont remeber exactly but surprisingly it didnt hurt, but im glad i didnt loose an eye similar story, though i was trying to chip a golfball on to my lawn, 5 swings later and a couple of centimetres deeper into the ground i decided to belt i...

best wishes from here in AUS

is there any way this sort of aluminium tube could be shipped to australia?
nice gun man, looks very slick. cant wait to see it finished

that motor looks like it was intended for something else... it doesnt have a chuck for a lathe on it. you'll want that. also you may have an issue with this thing loosening while its running, thats not gonna end nicely.

(pvc for 0-150psi + anything above that use steel) buy a Quick Exhaust Valve (QEV) off eBay/local pneumatic shop. Exhaust valves are basically a ready made piston valve. it...

Should depend on whether or not there is a guide rod in the valve body. yes i also support experimenting, but hey he's only new, We'll point him in the right direction

Thats amazing. shame i didnt see it! i dont think ill be around to see the next one, but im down in Australia so i dont know if i would have been able to see it anyway?

You'll want to drain it completely before putting any sort of drill bit/ cutting edge to it, thats what id do anyway, i need my hands and face.

thanks for the advice man. have you used the soda stream bottle with that regulator? i have a soda stream bottle that i bought ages ago.. i still need that adapter though. the bottle i have says its around 4000 psi for memory. are you sure that regulator is safe? nice gun by the way
