progress
so far ive built a solenoid valve but i still need to test it. im slacking on that, theres a big air compressor i can use but its out in the country.
trying to figure out the final parts for piston and sleeve
- have to match up all the diameters of everything
90% i like these parts:
outer sleeve: 4-1/2" 12 gauge tube
brass sleeve: 104mm ID
piston ring: 241 teflon o-ring 1/8" thick
outer piston: 4" 12 gauge tube w/ .078" cut for ring to sit in
