excellently done! that's very compact for the power you get. Its also good looking and very ergonomic. I might actually build something like this. Thanks for the inspiration!

Very nice!
The one thing to improve is to increase that pressure.

Wow some great craftsman ship there. Did you make all of the wood bits by hand. Try to pick out some nice stain for them(they do look good anyway though). Again great coaxial

edit: sorry for double post
The updates I made took out the t joint at the handle and put in a soldered t-joint, sanded and polished the gun and sprayed it with clear lacquer to keep the shine.
And some practice shots.

Looks really great Black!! Love the finish work there. You've got a unit there that should last you a lifetime if you take care of it.
It takes patience to complete a gun to this level...says something positive about the builder...

It is has a piston valve look at the drawing on page 1 this is a coax.
and I took a brass screw and braised it to the copper and bolted the rail and front sight in the little bolt that i braised onto the 22mm copper i will take close ups of it ok??
