4100 Disassembly - A look at the ol' innards
In the spirit of _Project 4100i, I decided to finally get around to drilling open my busted up 4100. Inside I found some pretty ordinary (for CPS soakers) looking components, however it looks as if you could saw the inner nozzle and get close to a 60x or more. Here are the pics.

Nice pics! Now, there's one 'nekkid' CPS4100...
What are you planning to do with it, if I may ask?
As an aside, this thread feels more 'Workshop' oriented so I'm currently considering moving it.

Yup, felt like moving this thread so... Presto!
Anyhow, perhaps people would be interested in seeing a variety of soakers' internals? If so, I just might be tempted to see what I can do to help.

Of course they would be, what do you think SSCentral's internals section is for? It is a little small though, you likely could get a many more internal pics. I would like to see that.
Impossible, there is no soaker that is sold that could be like that. The internal diameter is way too small. Dual air pressure PCs on a homemade with a 3/4" internal diameter could just get about 50x at most.

Y'know, I never noticed the Internals part on SSCentral. Cool!
Anyhow, I'll see what I can do to push up some pics.

The clear tube limits the maximum size the CPS-chamber can expand. This is to prevent over-expansions and potential bursting of the CPS-chamber (which, for all intents and purposes, is a thick-walled rubber balloon).BlueMage wrote:wow, cool. i've never seen the guts of a CPS blaster before. what is that big clear tube for? anyways, i have pics of the insides of a max-d 6000 if anyone is interested. i'll post them soon.
