I went to the hardwere store yesterday to get some Plumbers Goop. On a bargin table there was this trigger looking thing. On closer inspection I found it was a fancy valve that is used to replace valves in Nail Guns. On the back of the box it said it was rated fo 500psi!!!!!!!!! And to make things even better, on either end there were threaded holes and those tube adapters for it.

Most people use Ball or zero related valves. I think this is smoething that someone missed and it might just work. Just spreading the word. I'll try it out in one of my guns and see if it works.

May I ask how much this thing costs? I would assume it is pretty expensive. Other than that, sounds like a nice find.

[Ironman]

Do you have a name?

[buckbogey]

No name yet, all it is is a compresser nail gun replacement valve, thats what it says on the box. Price, you would be amazed, $3.99, that's less than it cost to build a zero valve. I'm going to replace the ball valve in one of my guns and see how it works.

[Oroku Saki]

Hey that's a great idea. Come to think of it, it may be possible to contact a manufacturer of nail guns for something like that as well if you are having difficulty in finding it locally.

$4US? That's pretty kickass. I haven't been paying too much attention to those valves, since most that I find are highly priced, so I'm glad someone was keeping their eyes open.

What's the smallest cross-sectional area that the air has to pass through?

[Blue Ice]

1/8 inch

You just fucked yourself up the ass...that is, if you are still trying to get people to beleive you aren't buckbogey. How would you know that if he was the one who bought it...

Anyways, I think that sounds like a pretty sweet valve. I'll be looking around for one, especially since you said it was $4. Even if it doesn't work, $4 isn't that much of a price to pay.

Oh, what's really going to bake your noodle later on is, how do you know anything he has said is true?

This guy that bought this valve is a fucktard, dont talk to him.

Okay, buckbogey invented new darts that were highly unsafe and supposedly hurt like motherfucker. Everyone pointed out the safety issues, but buckbogey hoisted his flag higher and stood by his darts. After realizing he was a prick and everyone hated him, he decided to make a new account, .:blue ice:. Cxwq noticed that the two accounts had the same ip, but let it go by to help out buckbogey 'cause he had gotten off on the wrong foot. But the first post of blue ice's was saying that he'd also invented the unsafe darts. It went downhill from there. BI denied being BB, and got flamed countless times untill he laid low for a while and admitted that he was BB and BI. And then he lied about trigger valves. Great history.

Now, don't forget he proclaimed himself the king of homemades, and proceeded to teach us a lesson on how to properly build a homemade. Yet in another thread, he says he is struggling, and needs help building a homemade.

That little bit adds a new dimension to his... 'Great History'.

He also tried to lecture us on how much pressure PVC can hold, and how :cough bullshit cough: you could increase the pressure rating by wrapping wire around the air tank.
