LOL, well thats pretty close to the kind of guy I am.
Were you speaking from experience? I know I've done stuff like that before. Anyway, just standard metal pipe fittings and stuff? I'd kind of assume some soldering or welding skills would be needed.

The only skill you would need is the ability to use some kind of thread sealand, with the silly amount of fitting types out there today you should be able to make do.
Here's an example by Lockednloaded of a HPA setup using a pressure washer handle as a trigger valve, hooked up to a paintball tank - all using off-the-shelf parts simply screwed together. That with a valve restriction would serve your purposes well.

Oops, sorry, I missed the link the first time. (Comes of reading when I should be in bed waiting for my alarm clock to go off
)
Anyway, I'd seen that post before, and just about cracked up. I did something like that once. Was working on a PVC pipe ball valve cannon, and forgot that I hadn't cemented the end cap on. Started to fill it with my bicycle pump, and got to about 40 PSI, when the cap came off. Went right past my ear, and just about scare the life out of me right then and there.
Thanks for the input, man, I really appreciate it. I'll see what I come up with, and put some pics up here.
