More from panzier
16mm bolt turned down to a shade over 0.500, threads turned on the lathe, added an o-ring surface at the end, added an o-ring groove under the nut, other side is a standard schrader type thread and there's a pin down the middle made from an 8 penny nail so it can activate the valve at the bottom of the big bore. I haven't turned threads on a lathe before using a single point tool, I had a lot of fun doing it.
It's for recharging a hydraulic accumulator, piston style, and I was unable to source one anyplace. It could use a dab of paint but it works amazingly well and a good tight fit, was aiming for a class 2 thread fit and think its pretty close to that.
This will allow me to pressurize an accumulator to 1000 psi from a nitrogen or argon tank! Accumulators are exceedingly dangerous, wear your safety squints!

How great it is to beat the parts store outa money. Speaking of danger and pressure, when I was working at a gas station in high school, a friend did not tighten the safety screw on a tire machine and it blew. Cut his nose off and he still has a giant semi circle scar on his face. Another time two more friends had a hole in their Duster's gas tank and tried to weld it after only washing it out. Blew the bay doors out into the middle of 14th street. They were very lucky. I had to put up with people coming in and telling me how to do it right until I went off to college.
well, the issue is that butane isn't flammable until mixed with air so depending on where the flare is (assuming you mean a butane tank for lighters versus a bbq tank for torches/grilles) you might get a pop and a foosh followed by nothing if the mixture never makes it to the source of ignition before the frosty mixture disperses in the wind. If you get lucky you get a brief nifty fireball.
I figured that there would be some sort of problem I just wrote a guy right after writing you r.e. this matter. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22082993/
Ha! that's awesome. If you shot one as described with a 30-06, if you hit the gas area of the tank, you'd make an entry and possibly an exit hole, depending on the level of the tank you'd end up with a couple six or eight foot jets of flame for a few minutes until the contents inside cool down, then the jets would decrease to about half that intensity or less and the tank would ice over. If you hit the liquid part of the tank and obtained ignition, you'd have a much more intense fire for a much shorter period of time, a good fireball for maybe half a minute.
Never fired one. Seen 'em used all the time. My uncle was a gunner on a M16 quad .50 during the retreat from the Yalu. He stood at the twin tunnels and helped save the rest of 2cnd Divisions sorry ass. His description of the carnage left no doubt on my mind of their effectiveness. The quad is outlawed now, I wonder why. What does it matter how you get killed?

This was done on an 80's vintage Enco lathe, I do have a 40's vintage South Bend, 14 1/2 x 60 with the taper attachment and a lot of parts. This was a grade 8.8 bolt 16mm x 60mm turned down to a .510 slug cause what am I going to use a 16mm bolt for! The nut was a junk 7/16 nut. bored out to 500 and pressed onto the slug, then welded up before hack turning it.
