Paintball co2 diy

[Puner84]

So I saw some threads on the DIY paintball co2 and thought I give it a try. I had a a few parts and tanks laying around from my paint ball days. I need to get a small pressure gauge, better valve, and a diffuser for in the tank. But here are a few pics of what I started this morning at work. Lol

When it comes to paintball setups, I wouldn't compromise any lower than the status-quo ASA valve + needle valve setups. You would have basically no way to control the 800 or so PSI with the setup you have there.

I'm usually a defender of the paintball setups, but that kind of looks dangerous to me.

I have to pick up my Asa valve and needle valve and my pressure gauge after work. Those pics are mock up. I have to tape the threads also. The valve is on I had laying around my shop. I thru in there to see how it would look.

Why can I use as a diffuser until my glass one gets here. Would a air stone work?

Your best bet would be using something that won't clog or require line pressure. Running into a powerhead or a reactor are good options for this.

Ok cool thanks for the reply. When I have it 100% done I will post more pics I'm am polishing the bottle. And I want to resign a little bit for looks since you will be able to see the bottle
