Alan,
Im currently building a feather flipper and planning to power it with a compressor - could you please let me know how you attached the compressor into the pneumo system as this is currently my main grey area.
Cheers

Kev,
We took the compressor hose off and just fit some 6mm pipe onto it with a jubilee clip. It works ok as long as the compressor doesnt get too hot and soften the pipe. Works well as a overheating safety device
sorry, no pics yet but will post them on my site when i get some.

thats all we did.
OK Cheers for that - Did you cut the hose or take the compressor apart and disconnect it? It would be nice to still be able to use it as a compressor if I suddenly found myself en-route to an event with a flat tyre

We got a junior hacksaw and cut through the metal crimp connector and the hose just pulls off. I dont see why you couldnt use the jubilee clip to attach it back on if needed and use it as normal.
Having seen your very good website Alan, I wonder if we are the first generation of middleweight gas flippers.
What was the weaponry of Doom Too at Extreme 2?
As far as I can remember, it did not have a weapon. If anyone has contact information for them we could ask them (and encourage them to attend at Manchester).
my pics have been sent to be developed and will be on my website this weekend.
