Yeah, my first air compressor was the campbell hausenfiel thingy 2 gallon oilles, the next month the engine burned down. When looking for compressor try to buy the one's that use oil.

Bad news! The neoprene selaing face keeps bursting.. The beer holders just don't work... I will go to home depot tommrow what section should I look in?

did you glue the face on?, look in the section with bolts and nuts and screws.

I glued it on, It still works but it bursted under pressure because of the bad quality, I was asking what section neoprene is in. I looked before but I couldn't find it.

doesn't have to be neoprene it can be rubber, did you super glue it or what?

For the pilot valve, you dont need that quarter inch pipe nipple and the coupling, you can take both of them off the and just keep the quarter inch ball valve.

Look in hardware and you can find neoprene washers, just take a small screw and a small washer and bolt it on, and it will stay on.

The neoprene washers will be in the "specialty screw drawers" section...oh at Lowe's, I don't remember any at Home Depot.

The problem was the hot glue, hot glue doesn't bond, you should have super glued yea washers should be in where starman said, they are usually in drawers.

I am don't understand how the hot glue caused the neoprene to break.

Thanks!

it didn,t break it just got messed up by the pressure, since it wasn't properly bonded to the piston.

But I heard a little popping noise. So You Think If I went out and bought super glue it would still be cool.

should be, if not bolt it, yea that happed with my first piston valve, except the whole sealing face shot out of the barrel cause I only hot glued the sealing face on, I now bolt it on with a washer, did yours leak?

It leaked only after it popped, I will try it tommorow, if it breaks again I will just use rubber. Since I already casted the piston.

But before it popped did your whole cannon seal 100%?And what kind of barrel are you using what dia?
