However I still have a question. Would an old Nebulizer give it a more consistant flow on the cheap?Mistjif681https://www.blogger.com/profile/08494344366524313962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2554350560027931813.post-46995242124936370692011-04-13T12:01:09.642-04:002011-04-13T12:01:09.642-04:00Bryan - I'm sure that would work, but I'd ...Bryan - I'm sure that would work, but I'd be cautious of the psi. The only reason I haven't gone past 2 pumps (40psi) on my setup is because I don't want the soccer ball valve to blow off. I'm not sure what the limit of the bond for the valve is, or the limit of the can. If you buy the official can from Copic that hooks up to an air compressor, they say to set the compressor to 30-40 psi. However, I can't say if the can I drilled is the same as the can they sell for the compressor. So, I keep it about 40psi or less, because that works and...so far...hasn't broken the setup. <br /><br />Let me know your results if you try an electric pump...and the price.GFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00309055603761323911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2554350560027931813.post-4504303267356177572011-04-13T11:38:16.963-04:002011-04-13T11:38:16.963-04:00What about using a 12V bike pump that you plug int...What about using a 12V bike pump that you plug into your car or one you can plug into the wall. I think some of those are not to costly and you can set the PSI (I think) on some of those so you don't over pressurize. It would make it much more useful I think.mrwizard96https://www.blogger.com/profile/00364292955510867478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2554350560027931813.post-18704881383378287992011-04-13T09:49:09.626-04:002011-04-13T09:49:09.626-04:00Nope, no porta pottie this time.

I might invest in one of those for the next batch of flies.GFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00309055603761323911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2554350560027931813.post-22396800777422255802011-04-13T09:26:52.012-04:002011-04-13T09:26:52.012-04:00ahhh,very nice. so, much for the porta-pottie idea...ahhh,very nice. so, much for the porta-pottie idea. ;-}<br /><br />Looks like it worked like a charm.cliftzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05274136827609388034noreply@blogger.com
