A cheap easy puge valve

[Sariél]

I got tired of pulling the cork out to purge my new abyss copy
three hose eqyptian, so I looked around to see what I could
do. I made this with a ball bearing and a cheap pipe you can buy at any
head shop. You could also probably use a ball with a sneak-a-toke, but
I couldn't find mine.

The only problem is that you need to hit a little harder to get the ball
to seal again after purging, but this could probably be solved with a
small washer inside.

Cost- less than $5
Time- about 2 minutes. Edited May 24, 2007 by Sariél

Man, I need to proofread better if I'm going to criticise others' incoherent, lazy posting style.

Thats basically what mine does....
Mine utilizes a stopper and the bearing housing is closer to the diameter of the bearing (makes things less sloppy)
Good thinkin.
