pressure gauge, no matter how hard I try I always have to try to make the needle move by blowing into it.

Duct tape is my best friend and so is neon zip ties. If I could pick anything I would use some 4340(I think)Crommolly DOM tubing, and then a 1000psi QEV type valve that I use at work. They are really cool.

Some 304 stainless is nice. Some Diamond plate is cool.
