Shrader valves are just like valve stems on a car rim but they are eather treaded in or you can buy a bold in style valve stem. Home depot, lowes I think carry shrader valves but the might be called a sniffer valve (I know funny name but that is what they called mine) or a hardware store, but the bolt in style valve stems can be bought from a auto parts store. Any way Awsome job Twitch keep up the good work :)

I got an idea for a ghetto barrel. use a car exhaust pipe as a barrel, or maybe as the outer barrel.

Good idea Im looking for an aluminium broom handle. And I get my valves by blowing up old bike tubes and cutting the valves off. Its a lot of fun except water and tire goo constantly get me :lol:
