RE: points on compressor marker [TANKS]

["Doug Conn" <dwconn404-at-comcast.net>]

For what it's worth, I started out with the idea of home-made marker. I got
something working, but it didn't have range or power of a commercial marker.
When I discovered $50 electronic markers, I threw in the towel and bought
one.

The pressure switch is a common item, all shop air compressors have them and
some are quite small.

Yes, I see your point, 
What I want is a reservoir with a safety valve, when at XXX psi flicks a
micro switch and turns off the compressor.
I dont know of such a device, but I`ll bet they exist.
If anyone knows about this, please inform me.

However i`ve seen spyder markers for 50quid, at a place near me, so Im
wondering why I dont just stay with what I know works. Good old Co2!
