Re: Carbon Fiber compressed air tanks for AirGraver
As you can see in that post, he used the regulator on the scuba tank to do the pressure reducing for the Airgraver system.
All that tubing can be eliminated and you can connect the "fill station" fitting on to the scuba tank and fill the carbon fiber or if your choice is a steel tank from the full scuba tank.
The carbon fibers come with the regulator inside the neck of the tank, this is why they will work so well.
Be sure to get the same reducing regulator into the neck of any steel tank that you purchase from elsewhere or you will blow the regulator out on the Airgraver system.
You have to get the discharge pressure on your small tank down to under 900 - 1000 psi, to work with the Airgraver regulator.
I'm working on converting an old hard cased "shooting box" to hold the whole set-up, it will take a while longer to get it finished. I will post some pictures when it is completed.
Good luck,
