i have just finished a 1/4 inch metal piston valve, its very powerful and you only need 5 parts plus a hot glue gun;
1- 1/4 tee
2-1/4 tit
3-1/4 flex hose adapter
4-neoprene sheet
5-standard bic pen

(and a little spring, very easy to find in a pushbutton pen)

its very easy to make, no high tech tools required.
