Would these work as a spacer type thing?

Again with the new gun im building, I decided i really dont feel like making something out of plywood for a spacer between the double resevoir. Do you guys think that these pipe saddles would work?

I really want the ones that are bolt tightened to the pipe, not solvent, but they are 30 a piece lol.


hmmm i would also need a way of making them almost perfectly aligned if i did that.

It would be easyer to make it out of wood. Or carboard layered. But thoses saddles will work.

Before you glue the gun together, glue the saddles on and connect them. Then it can't be crooked.

just make them out of wood or sheet pvc, dont go and blow money on something you can make yourself which looks just as good if not better

The best way to align parts exact is to use the floor.

Saddle + pipe + connect two saddles + bungie cord = removeable support?

You could use 2 pieces of threaded pipe inbetween those saddles, screw the pipe in or out for adjustment. You can't beet the price. Real easy to build and use.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!

I think it's a great idea all the way around!

lol its too anoying to unscrew it, there would have to be a cam lock in between the things.


A union may work.
