I made it just for testing to see if I could power a weapon with it, maybe a lifter or grabber.
It's made the same way as yours but with a regular bike inner tube (about 30mm diameter), 450mm long and has a stroke of around 80mm which is a bit pathetic! Braided hose goes from 30 to 45mm. In that video it is lifting around 100lbs at which point we ran out of weights to put on it. Looked like it could lift a bit more but as more load it put on it contacts less.
Was running at around 80psi but there was a leak somewhere so that kept dropping rapidly.
The encaps were made from aluminium and had a groove machined into them to provide more grip for the jubilee clip.

I wonder if you used stainless steel braided hose if you could run off full pressure CO2? Wouldn't want to be around during testing though!
