How long is your axe arm?

About 30cm and does any one have any idea what tank i could use for the buffer tank? and it only needs to take 10 bar so i don't peticulaly want to use a normal full pressure tank, because it would be to heavy. thanks

i have 3 small dry powder extinguishers that would be suitable. i have 0.8kg, 1kg and 1.36kg

[Bodge Job]

do they take 10 bar? and that fittings are they? as one of those may be perfect.

[jonny]

they'll take 10 bar easy. no fittings as of yet

hey alex when u come round to mine i'll talk to u about pneumatics and what u need and where to get them.

[Bodge Job]

Ok, although I have found neally all of the parts I need...

[Bodge Job]

also i was wondering what co2 tank, fits directly to the Trevor reg?as I think that would be a better option than a paint ball tank with an adapter.

Just wondering about quick exhaust valves, from what I have picked up, is that you put gass though one port, and it goes out of another (in to the ram) but when the pressure in the first port drops below the second one, it vents it, so the air doesnt have to travel all the way back though the solenoid valve? I was just wondering, as it may increase the flow rate on my axe, if I fit it on both ports on the ram...

Look at Woodies site. Everything you need for such things is there.

And yes, even with the conventional use of QEV's the ram will work faster than without them.
