Nicely made, you failed to mention what pressures you're getting though

Nice indeed. Does it work properly, does everything seal?
Beware of the checkvalve, if it leaks your pump will become a ram.
Now go exercise!

but you have a big dead volume between the O ring and the check valve so you will get to the point you compress the air in the cylinder and cant pass he cant pass the check valve
