C02 Chamber Help

Here's a picture of what the end of the hose looks like with the attachment taken off:



From what I remember, you have to pull BACK on the sleeve around the joint in order to pull the end attachment off.

I have those two apart I was trying to get the piece connected to the hose off. I'm now guessing I don't got to, see this is what I was trying to pull apart.

My DIY thread has a full list of what I used step by step pics and a price list of each element. Don't want to take five minutes to look at it then I don't want to take 2 hours documenting a 30 minute job a second time

Hey, no need for this. I read all those threads. Yours and many others. If you don't want to help, then don't post :/

A lot of the DIYs are contradicting and use different pieces. Don't assume I didn't read your thread just because I am trying to clarify how this thing goes together.

Sita, thanks, that picture is helpful. I'm fairly certain I know what pieces I need now.

Just the tank and the remote line.

edit: I realize you don't need this but I modified the other designs slightly-

What I did to make the air get to the bottom of the chamber is buy a pvc piece at Lowe's that screws on to the quick release valve you can see pictured above. That piece fits into a 1/2 in (?) PVC pipe which I put a T connector at the end of and 2 short pieces coming off of that. Basically it makes it so the CO2 doesnt burst out of the pipe because the T piece splits it up and breaks the initial burst, and the 2 exits off the T makes the CO2 distribute nice and evenly low at the bottom of the chamber.

This is really what I wanted to know.

I was reading this page: http://www.thereddragonsden.com/co2.htm and they talk about CO2 release valve.. and I can't really figure out what that is or why I needed it.

Hmm sounds interesting. Might have to give that a try Thanks for the tip!

I sincerely apologize it was late and I was sprouty, it had been a long day. I think I misunderstood what you were saying and popped off hastily.

The 'release valve' is the knob on the end that connects to the tank.

Option 1: you buy a 'paintball remote line' which comes with the line, quick connect end, and release valve on the other end

Option 2: you buy just the 'release valve' and fit it to some tubing on your own. When I was at the paintball store they said it was 20 bucks or so for the remote line and 17 for the release valve alone. It seemed worth it to me to have the whole thing assembled and outfitted to control the kind of pressure the tank puts out.

No hard feelings!

Okay then I think I'll go with the remote.
