As I said, I know Mr. Leav will not listen to me. I hope that he never has to learn by awful experience the danger of what he is doing.
Sorry you feel that way, but i'm afraid you are wrong.
my post may have been childish, but it was ment to be because i was "accepting defeat" .
i understood that there is no way to use a pvc air tank in FIRST, and continued to make a little joke (please note smiley faces after the "pvc is superior" text).

agreed....



and in short:
I will not use PVC pipes and tanks in FIRST, and when i build spudguns, i will hope that i never feel the effects of pvc shrapnel.

Happy build season,
