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
top of piston: steel plate, not sure yet

made a pattern to tranfer punch where holes are to be drilled

there should end up being seven different sets. not sure if pages will be reusable after punching through?
need to put a ruler on the printouts so peeps can verify they printed to the right size.
