Hey I called my local Home Depot, and sure enough, it was the same person who didn't know what pressure rated PVC pipe was. I asked if they carried pressure gauges, and the person didn't know what they were. They actually had to hook me up with the head of the plumbing department. He said he "couldn't find" the kind of pressure gauge I needed. Should I look there myself or search elsewhere?
If I'm wasting forum space, feel free to delete this.
Where can I find a pressure gauge?

Check in the tools section by the Air Compressors they usually have replacment ones. If you can't get one there you can get it from www.McMaster.com. Or www.surpluscenter.com

Get hold of the guy in the air tool section. That's where there at. The brand should be Campbell Hausfeld or something like that. The threads are 1/4".
Wow I really spend too much time at HD

Oh and Spudstuff, that picture with the shark attacking the person on the ladder under the helicopter is a proven fake. A shark under the Golden Gate Bridge? Ah well, most of them are, but it's still cool!
(sorry, just clicked on it for fun)
Anyway, would my bike shop sell me a schrader (spelling?) valve?

check plumbing supply stores for a schrader, they are commonly used on pressure tanks for home water systems.

yeah I saw them in the plumbing section. It sounds like you were just talking to an idiot and you should just go there.
