OK, so I have been surfing SSC, the internet and McMaster for a while. And as far as making a homemade with LRT goes, I haven't found much hard data on sizes. What I would like to try and do is compile a data sheet of sorts; what size and length/s of LRT used, barb size, LRT expansion (diameter and length), pipe size (ID), valve size, nozzle type and size, output and range, appx. capacity, pump size, pump volume, etc. It would be great to know what works, what doesn't etc.
It sounds like a lot, but when you are trying to make a homemade, it is all you can think about! Considering the experience of only a handful of members combined, I am sure that this board is capable of producing some very useful data!

Slightly off topic, I'm about to open up a Hydro Cannon. But does anyone know the size of the fittings around the PC? I plan on replacing it with LRT or a Flash Flood's chamber.

Also, I am making a pull valve for use on my Power Pak and possible some homemades.

As you can see, this would go on the blaster in place of a ball valve. However, as you can see, the water would have to go down a 90 degree bend followed by another 90 degree bend, through the valve(not pictured) out the front of the tee, then through a nozzle with quite possibly a laminator. I have a plan. What do y'all think?

The pull-valve looks cool. Testing it will be the only sure way to find out if it works.

Would the pull-valve function similarly to a homemade check valve, but housed within the lower part of the tee?

I suppose, yes that would be the idea. Except there will be a rod, springs, and o rings. I can't build this until I go back to the store; but I can't wait to make it work.
