This is my first large(well large for me)Piston valve i named it slurpy because i was drinking one when i was getting the part from the store its not yet complete but it will be soon all i need i 40mm pipe for the barrel and om done.
The valve is made from 50mm PN18 pipe and is in a T is exhausted by a modded sprinkler valve called the samuel MKII.Enjoy.
Any thing i should do to help this valve when its complete?I do have one problem,which is the filling of the cannon were should i place the valve?

It's easiest to fill the gun from behind the piston, so that you don't need a return spring on it.
What are you using for a piston? How are you going to attach the sealing face to the piston you plan on using?

The port which is 40mm PVC will be comming about 1/4 of the way into the T and sealing against it.And i wasnt going to use a return spring i got an idea for the filling of it another T before the sprinkler with a male compressor addapter and a 1/4 ball valve.
