1/8-27 thread question

[Luke]

Which thread is used by manufacturers for paintball air fittings, NPT, NPTF or NPS?

[desertT1]

Npt.

[Simon]

Yep, 1/8th NPT.

Making some pnue frames or something else fun?

[Luke]

I've always used NPT but wasn't sure what the PB standard was.

I'm currently working on an AM 86* mech grip frame with the ep/pneu tinkerer in mind.
Learning lots on the cnc, every job I learn something new.
Enjoying your Haas?

[Simon]

Don't forget to post pics here for us!

I am enjoying the Haas and just got a lathe (need to post pics) but so far I have been busy just getting my workshop built mainly. Am hoping to make some parts over the Holidays.

[Luke]

cnc lathe with live tooling??

[Simon]

Yep

[Luke]

You dawg! Haas?

No more machines for me until I get a new shop, no more free space.

Power is an issue for me too; if my compressor kicks on when the cnc spindle is ramping I get shut down. I have early power failure dection on the mill so I'm not crashing the machine but it's annoying because I have to reboot. It’s better than crashing but if it happens too many times I get frustrated to say the least.

[Simon]

I have power issues to. Gonna need to upgrade at some point.

If you do an intro and get access to the insider section you can see my machine shop build thread.

Yep a Haas.

[Luke]

Whats an intro? lol
