Well, Its been a few days I've been thinking about this. Today I started building, and now I'm nealy done. And under-budget by about £5! So atm, I spent around £15 and have a working pressurised CO2 system! Now, I want to make it look pretty before I write a how-to, so I was wondering, does anyone know where I can find a 12.5mm to 4mm reducer? (internal pipe dimensions, hence those need to be the external dimensions of the reducer). That is, assuming standard air-line tubing is 4mm internal (don't have a micrometer handy).

Anyone? If it costs less than £5, I will have succeded in producing a pressurised CO2 system for less than 20£ (including a refill of gas!). Otherwise, for now, the ugly one is around 15£.

Common, you know you want to help me finish it ;)

(Now, I won't tell you how until it looks better :p)

these guys are very helpfull i usualy go down the the shop )just down the road from me. been very helpfull with me building my co2 kit (wish i`d got a regulator from them too as the one i have is poo and isn`t working right....
 
Thanks for the fast reply ;) I couldn't find the adaptor on their site, so I emailed them. Finger crossed... This is so frustrating! I took apart the ugly one (i had sealed the main pipe with a hot glue gun, and shoved the small pipe into it instead of using the reducer...) now its sitting on my desk looking at me pleading to be put together!
