I really wanted to use reclaimed pallet lumber like that, but we didn't have any at work. I also tried to split up some old deck boards but ripping boards on a table saw with a wobbly fence was no fun either. If I had a bandsaw it would be a different story... or even a planer because then I...

I actually did a test box trying dado cut finger joints. It required far too much precision for my very meager wood working skills. I believe that a router with a dovetail jig is a far better way to make them. I was looking for quick, simple, easy and cheap. Dovetails, especially hand cut...

I got so much positive feedback that I entered it into the Epilog Laser contest! http://www.instructables.com/contest/epilog4/?show=ENTRIES Please vote for me! If you Vote for me and if I win I can burn/melt things! I'm working on detailed plans right now. I'm also going to try my hand at...

Those are NICE! I like the open sides. Incidentally my plans made the front page of Instructables, seems the editors liked it.

I was having that same problem. The carboard just never holds up more than a few weeks. I thought about doing 24 bottles ones but opted for the easier to move 12 bottle versions.

I wish I had wood working skills too... I am admittedly a hack. Look to see if there is a hackerspace (www.hackerspace.org) near you. They usually will have equipment you can use for very cheap or free.

That's a really good idea on the rabbits! I tried doing finger joints but that required far more skill and precision that I was capable of. So I opted for easy to assemble. I did try cutting the dividers all at the same time. The biggest issue I ran into was that the angle of attack on the...

I play for the scenario paintball team Pub Crawling and with a name like that we know our way around a pint or two. I looked for plans to make wooden bottle crates to hold beer and couldn't really find what I was after. So I incorporated a few of the best ideas that met my needs from all of...

It is spring. I would like to win; if it is possible.

That is a 20oz tank and is old, probably 5-6 years or so. Paintball Co2 tanks don't have or get oil put in them from either the manufacturer or via the bulk filling. They get filled off from the same bulk fill tanks that Airgas or any other air distributor uses for home brewed beer. My local...

I transported 4 kegs over 5 hours in the back of an uncovered pickup truck. When I got to my destination they were still cold so I hooked them up to co2 and tap lines right away and we began drinking them. They all tasted great. The next morning they were still cold and by that evening they...

I did a smoked hickory scotch ale. It reminded me of eating hickory smoked bacon. I liked it.

That is entirely a function of your regulator and/or gauge. Some regulators can't supply pressure that low. Some gauges arent accurate enough to show that level of detail. Generally speaking the smaller the gauge and the larger the range of psi readout the less accurate the gauge is...

I built a very similar setup based on paintball equipment also: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/another-paintball-beer-dispenser-carbing-setup-238862/

After doing a little work in the shop I agree. The presence of a dip tube makes dispensing co2 from a fire extinguisher a huge PITA: You either need to remove the dip tube or find a way to turn this upside down and have it mounted securely. Both of those things are entirely possible...

You would have to turn this upside down in order to work because of the dip tube in the tank.

Co2 Extinguisher fill station

Fun with a co2 fire extinguisher

I was inspired by this thread here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/another-paintball-co2-tank-adapter-question-220064/ So I made an instructable here: http://www.instructables.com/id/Paintball-Regulator-Beer-Dispenser-1/ And decided to share it with you all here...

Here is the completed regulator assembly. The use of the hard piped nipples instead of classic braided co2 line used in paintball means the entire assembly will stay rigid when installed on a co2 tank. Instead of using the 1/8" NPT nipples you could use braided line. I personally like...
