I did on my Air Charger. The unit came with two switches, as I recall, one for compressor motor and one for coolant pump. When I was done pumping air I would turn of the compressor switch and mounted to my joist overhead I had an electrical box with a rotary timer and a three position...

As many have mentioned, it’s what America does. About 20 years ago I was rebuilding a Wheel Horse garden tractor. Its Kohler engine had thrown a rod. I was at the local dealer getting some parts and was looking at the current model. I said to the dealer “I see the latest model, which is the...

To add to my post #4, today I just happen to wrap up my latest Anderson Powerpole conversion to make my generator more user friendly. I generally start my electric start dual fuel Firman generator every couple months but got distracted this year and when I went to start it the battery only got...

I have used Anderson Powerpole connectors on several home and work projects. They are of the highest quality. I have attached a link from a Google search of Anderson power pole products. Nice job on your adaptation for your compressor...

Intersting way of referring to powder burners. 😂😂

Many years ago in the job shop I worked in, we had a job for an aircraft manufacturer that was magnesium. I saved the chips. At our after hours Christmas party that year, after the owner went home, I took a 5 gallon pail of chips in the parking lot and squirted a good dose of acetone in the...

Mike, I have not seen that fitting in the OP either. Curious who the manufacturer is.

I used to use 1/8” fittings on my scuba flow bench. I am assuming your booster goes to at least 4,500 to maybe 5,000 psi. Go McMaster Carr and search 1/8” Yor-Lok fittings. You will find 1/8 tube to 1/8” NPT fittings. They are rated for 6,000psi for stainless and 6,800 for steel. Considering...

The OP’s parts are not the Swagelok VCR fitting. I welded hundreds of VCR fitting to tubing with an orbital welders when I worked at Swagelok. The VCR is a very unique fitting that entails using two VCR’s facing each other but with a metal gasket between the faces. It is also a very costly fitting.

In three years here on AGN IIRC, there was a Leshy tank on a gun that exploded, details were sketchy as I recall. And there may have been another gun tube cylinder that experienced a “rapid disassembly, again, sketchy info. A friend that owns a dive shop in New York had a paintballers carbon...

Some folks will say that they run their home compressor in the basement of an air-conditioned house. Even with air conditioning, the humidity is between 30% and 50%. Air coming out of a molecular sieve will be .1% and most likely less than that. The dryer your air, the better, that’s why some...

A lot of people think black oxide or gun bluing is a rust preventer. For all practical purposes it’s an indoor coating. But even indoors both can rust. A light coating of a rust preventive and low humidity is key. Nice work on the restoration.

And be advised, forum members have there own opinions and empirical results/proof of what works for them. How much moisture you need to deal with can dictate the type of filtration. A guy in Florida and a guy in Arizona deal with vastly different humidity levels. But having maintained a scuba...

I’m typically not a fan of 3D printed items but darn, you did a nice job. 👍👍

I 100% rely on empirical (DOPE) data from going to the range and shooting in 5 yard increments. Time consuming? Absolutely. But it’s full proof.

That’s going to be a toughy to find that adapter.

You would think by now with all the extras they add on to scopes, like Sig Sauer scopes for example, that a level could be built into a scope.

Very interesting. And makes total sense.

If no one responds with a facility you might inquire at your local FD as to where they send their cylinders.

My first PCP was a .25 Marauder in a plastic stock. I eventually went the FX route buying half a dozen different models and three or four other high end models. Eventually sold them all and went back to .22LR. In retrospect to that journey, I really could have totally gotten by with the original...
