Hello. Im using a sprinkler valve 3/4in for my pneumatic paintball gun...Currently its powered directly from an air compressor....I want to know if you can draw me up a tank design (a link would do) that would work best for me. I want it to be able to hold ALOT of air..Im talking about in the 1/2 gallon range...The pressure max being 120psi...

Thanks in advance

yeah that would be ideal...except that I would have to buy a regulator and a whole bunch of expensive adapters and cables....It would total up to $70.....I was thinking of like pvc..

If you get one that is filled allready, i think you need a regulater, they hold a lot of pressure when factory filled. You should ask someone who knows more about them, it was just a idea off the top of my head.

Go to the tip and take the tank of a broken air compressor?
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.
