Educational series describing the basic construction and operation of a quick exhaust valve. Fogot to mention, if you fill from the chamber side, a spring behind the piston will help keep the piston sealed when beginning filling.
nice and very informational! I've seen some videos where they are putting a spring behind the piston through the 'R/Exhaust' port to make it semi automatic (very unclear if it dumps all of the air in cylinder). do you think that will work instead of using the 3 way valve and the small air container?
Raunaq mn if you read the video description, I actually mention the spring. Spring is only used when filling from the chamber side. Doesn't have anything to do with semi auto
@@swandonovan I think he means that the spring allows you to shoot once via a quick burst of air out the exhaust then when you release the trigger from your fire control mechanism, with the assistance of the spring, the piston will move against the exhaust more rapidly allowing you more shots from the same reservoir without dumping all your air in 1 or 3 shots
How did you know which glue to use for rubber to brass? How long does the glue last? How long does the rubber last? Is there a way to machine so you don't need rubber (no parts to maintain)?
Mike Lawrence I tried a few different glues before finding the one I use now. How long the glue and rubber lasts depends on a ton of variables like surface prep of the brass and rubber, what pressure you use the gun at, size and weight of the piston ect. Aka it's going to be different for everyone. I've tried making pistons out of delrin, nylon, brass and all of them leak without the rubber face
@@attributedfreedomliveit8482 I have no experience with any of the dap adhesive, but jb weld would be terrible for this application. You want something that remains flexible
Always be haters that are pissed off with them self ,an thunbs down every thing ,id say its a reflection of them self,disliking the person they are an way there thinking
I would like to know how you figure out volume needed per shot, especially with the valves you buy. Say like to propel a paintball, I know what my tank output pressure is and can regulate that down, but how do I determine volume?
