There definitely is a lot to be learnt from your work, I regularly link to it when hammer valves are mentioned :) what Labtecpower meant was that it's annoying and indeed against most forum policies when someone drags up an old thread without actually contributing anything useful.

That was what I wanted to say :D

You have made very nice hammer valves. Are you going to build something new in a while?

Hey Jack, great to hear of you:) I have been of the site for a while yeah.
I understand what Labtecpower meant now.

@Labtecpower:
Lately I have been inspired by the tippmann x7 phenom, it works like a automag but then it has less moving parts and is coaxial which makes it easier to manufacture. I will post about this in a new topic when I have time. Its not like it is revolutionary and its similar to Jack's valves. For me the question is, how can I make something that fires auto or semi with standardized parts. At the moment I am looking for O-rings with a thread'' thickness of 1mm (which they don't sell in the Dutch construction shops). Can anybody advise me how to get specific orings for a low price? I have tried with this company technirub, but I have to pay 10euro for each oring type.. I need about 3to4 different types:P Once I can get these specific orings I can make a tippmann x7 phenom style valve using the same piping I have used in the past, no milling required:)

Ja ik ben ook een Dutchman:)

Initially I am looking for 2 types of orings:
10mm outer dia, 1mm thread dia
8mm outer dia, 1 mm thread dia

In the shop they only sell 1,75 or 2,4thick thread orings.
I experimented with Orings and found out you can costumize your own orings by cutting one and glueing it back with a smallers radius. Rapid second glue did the job. So the conclusion is that I just need 1mm thread dia orings or pref a higher outer dia such that I can customize ehm.

Find the" O-ring size #" on the chart in the link. I have a Parker store nearby that carries them. Even large rings are usually no more than $0.30 ea. Give me a size # and I'll check.

In welke provincie woon je?

I will look in my O-ring collection for one suiting your needs.

If I need a specific O-ring, wich are impossible to get in the Netherlands, can I ask you? Of course you will get money for it. Here I bought the O-rings for my QDV for 5 euros each. That's $7.

Sure, but I can't imagine why some orings can't be obtained everywhere on earth.

Why so much? Are they considered "Contraband"?......They're just O-rings?!

The hardware stores don't have any O-rings, and the webshops only want to sell them to companies, and if you found one selling O-rings to individuals, they want to sell about 25, and they want >10€ to put them in an envelope, so two O-rings will cost you at least 22 euros.

Those are quite a rare size, small wall thickness for the diameter. I can understand you struggling to find them, you probably won't find anything like that in a set like JSR posted.
However you can get those exact sizes here, paypal accepted and not completely unreasonable postage.

Excuse my Dutch boys.

Je moet of een technische groothandel vinden, maar ik bedenk me net dat automaterialen zaken ze ook hebben.

Technische groothandel is goedkoper, maar verkoopt niet altijd aan particulieren.

Met automaterialen zaken bedoel ik dus niet de Halfords he.
Brezan bijvoorbeeld zal ze wel hebben.

Bedankt voor de tip!

Brezan is 5 min. fietsen :)

Laatst ben ik bij de Hornbach geweest, maar ik had niet de tijd om daar naar O-ringetjes te zoeken.
