Need to see what kind of plug I can make with silicone caulking and some release agent.

Mouthpiece should work great for your moulding form.

BIG THANKS to TMassey for the help in the build and selection process!!! As always, great inspiration taken from RSingler, to overhaul a regulator like the Jedi that he is.

edit - linking to amazon webpages wouldn't work, or wasnt allowed by SB, not sure which, so screen shots in hopes of enabling search for those that may want to purchase same/similar. its all cheaper on ebay, but i'm impatient

Just a follow up. I finished a weekend reg tech seminar today. My little pump was just fantastic in checking tune. So easy to slowly increase speed, watching for the IP dip, and just a glance over to the IP gauge. PERFECT! Thanks to all for the idea of this build.
