making epoxy pistons

[Counterstriker]

well, your kinda missing the concept.

are you making a coax or a regular T piston gun?

Well I am an idiot I don't know all about it. I plan on making a coax but am lost... In the link you gave me does it talk about this?

[STHORNE]

i don't believe i ever gave you a link, but I'm sure if you look around for diagrams, you will figure it out. I believe you are smart enough to do so.

Yah maybe it wasn't you. But I want it to sorta be like this

I don't know if its a coaxial for sure.

[STHORNE]

yeah, thats a coax, i drew you up a diagram myself to help you better understand the concept, hope it helps (i gotta eat supper so wont be back on for 30 mins)

[Counterstriker]

Wait.. I didn't know you need another fill valve leading to the chamber. I thought that at first but then I read that the air leaks around the piston.

Click me (or else)
Thats what I read.

[STHORNE]

yeah, theres two methods, the leak method and the 2 fill up method, either one works. but you dont usually have air leak all around the piston, you just have air leak through a hole in the piston, but either way, it'll work.

[Counterstriker]

Yah I like the leak method, seems cleaner. I know there should be exhaust holes but how do I make them?

[STHORNE]

with a drill. use between 3/16 and 1/4" drill bit.

I think you just had one of those if you dont know how to do it then you shouldnt be making these in the first place moments

i dont mean to insult your intellegence Im just saying....

[Counterstriker]

I think you misunderstood or I am being an idiot agin.. When I said exhaust I meant the wholes for the air to leak into the chamber.. Wouldn't those wholes be too big and would let the air "flow" rather then leak.

[STHORNE]

lol, its hard to explain, but if you just watch the videos from the link you mentioned, its not that hard of a concept to grasp

[bigbob12345]

Do you mean equilization holes in the piston?
if you do you dont need them unless the piston has o-rings because it wont be anywhere near airtight without orings and the air will freely fill the chamber.

[STHORNE]

yeah, he means equalization holes. and i tried telling him if he uses o-ring then he needs the hole and vise-versa. but w/e, i give up (no offense Counterstriker)

I can't understand your question.. sorry but.. I am a flaming idiot.. I understand almost all of the steps on making it, just not the park of "leaking air" and o-rings..

[bigbob12345]

okay just make a piston valve without orings or equalization holes and you should be fine.
