Large Pneumatic tanks/accumulators

[Jim Wilks]

For this years game, our pneumatics will need to store a decent amount of air.

Looking at the offerings on Andymark, the biggest is 574ml. I recall that they had larger tanks in the past.

Does anyone have some good leads on where larger plastic tanks could be purchased?

Pneuaire is a pretty good source.

That's 721 mL.

We ordered them in 2012 in Juneish and the lead time was about a week to Toronto.

I recall browsing the air tanks for truck pneumatic brake systems one year. Couple of gallons in some cases, OK if you've got the room. I even went so far as to model a chassis that used some long tanks as structural elements. Yeah, you cannot weld to them, but wicked cool concept, esp. with underglow LED lighting and bass-boosted sound system; low-rider envy sure to follow?
