So I am going to hopefully start making my first piston valve today. I have looked in this thread, and a few others for ideas, and I think I like the barrel sealer the best. My question would be, how big should I make it for the most amount of options? Would 1" work for a 2 inch barrel down to a airsoft or .22 barrel? I was also thinking about making a Toolies valve for a M1A1 style bazooka. Thoughts and suggestions?

Do a 2" tee/1.5" seat. Very basic :)

Im also working on my first piston valve. Mine is made in a 1 inch tee with a 3/4 inch barrel. I haven't tested it out though.
