In Response To: Re: Side flotation (Acors)

I went to try and find a picture of the tool I had seen, and searching for it I found a company selling fittings and hoses to attach to the paintball CO@ gas cylinders. This item did not appear to have any kind of regulator, just an on/off valve.

Price was US$ 19 plus US$ 7 for shipping.

On E-bay, of course.

And the name of the company was Putz Enterprises. Not sure if that would be in any way connected to the author of the book on skin and canvas boats. Probably not.

The item I saw is a topic of discussion on a toolmonger site:

http://toolmonger.com/2007/03/09/hot-or-not-portable-compressed-co2-regulatortank-for-nailers/

which is the source of the picture below.

The price was about US$ 80, which included a belt which is not shown in the picture

Anyone need to drive staples with an air stapler?

Hope this helps.
