I got a few of the small parts done last weekend. I started off by making the Air Tubes that fit between the Valve Body and Cylinder. I made these out of 1/4” A2 Drill Rod instead of just using cold roll like that plans called for. I like the look of Drill Rod better then Cold Roll. They are .500 long with a .125 hole to allow the air to pass through.
Then I machined the pin that will connect the Valve Rod to the Valve. It is made out of the same 1/4 Drill Rod. The fun part of this one was the cross drilled hole through the end of the pin. #60 Drill.
