Can you provide more information? I don't know why you're having that problem, so here are some questions that will help: What's the error message? Can you provide a screenshot?
i cant find the option

I think once a poll has been created, it can't be edited. Make a new poll if you want to add an option.

What 3D modeling program are you using? If you are using Autodesk Inventor, I can just give you the native files without conversion to STP.

You should need at least 40 psi as I recall, perhaps more. Not all home water systems will be able to reach that pressure. You can buy a pressure gauge to test your water pressure.
any way to increase the pressure of the home water system

You haven't provided any information about your LRT, so it's hard for me to say. The required pressure depends on the tube. All I can say is that you need more.
it is the same as the LRT in your superCPH guide

What's the procedure you're using to fill? Connect to the water hydrant, open valve, wait for LRT to fill, close valve, detach from water hydrant?

If that's the procedure, a check valve (one-way valve) is not needed.
that is the procedure

how much pressure do i need?

Re: Semi homemade CPS with pieces from a XSHOT blaster

Instead of using a ball valve requiring that much force to open & close in a quick manner why don't you buy an easier to open and close ball valve like this one: 3/4" PRO SERIES- 2PC PVC Ball Valve (SOCKET) with Stainless Steel Handle and CHROMIUM ABS Ball [Available 3/4", 1", 1.5", 2"] https://a.c...

Re: Semi homemade CPS with pieces from a XSHOT blasterit’s on the water to community. I post a video

Could you explain the photos a bit more? I am confused about what the pieces are at either end of the ball valve. Which way is the direction of the flow (which way would the nozzle point)?
