First, to those that have built one before, or have an idea as to how to do it, could you list the pneumatic (or sprinkler) parts used, including valve/solenoid, tubing/hose, connectors, and pump? We've seen tutorials with how to do it with things like a bike pumb and manual release knob/switch, but not an electric one. If you could also link where you got it, that would be great.

Second, is there a (cheap) way to attach a digital PSI sensor to the pneumatics? We would like to adjust the PSI output from the OI, but we aren't sure if we can.

All help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Looks great. Any way that I can get the plans and list of parts from you? Any other team that has built them, please let me know.
Have any of you built a handheld launcher? Please e-mail me any information to cpbio@aol.com
