Home Made Reservoir Cap for WW Hornet

Post by marauder » Sat Jan 05, 2013 2:09 pm

I got a Hornet for free, but it's missing the cap to the reservoir. I covered it up and pumped it and it holds pressure, but duct tape is not a long term option. Any recommendations as to how to go about this?

Replace the stock threads with a PVC threaded adaptor and use an endcap for the reservoir cap. Basically like making a nozzle without a hole in it.

I fixed the hornet. It is now for sale, for free. It was good just to gain the experience of doing this. I took photos and wrote down a guide so I can eventually put it on Hydrowar.

This is FREE for anyone who wants it.
