The other day my very first sprinkler valve shat its self...It was being used on my newest semi-auto marble gun and the valve must have been on its last legs..It cracked and leaked alot of its precious air content and shooting the projectile,the top of the valve were the diaphragm was cracked...i was shaterd...The poor valve was about 3 years old and served well and i hope it has a good life in..He had a name it was Samuel mainly becuase my friend who'm moved away helped me make this valve..RIP my valve..Rest In Peace...Would any one like to say any words of respect to my dead valve?

I think some one has a temper problem..Did the epoxy hit you because that would hurt.
