Give Jon Payne a ring. He was the one who had the compressor at Wakefield. I assume that's the one you were talking about???

I think he is going to take it to all Bullies events, so it might not be worth you forking out on your own one???

Nick mate, that wasnt exactly a compressor as such - it was a genesis machine (i dont think you can use it to create bold new worlds either-star trek) and its not Jons its Nialls from Campaign - im sure i heard nick say they were a couple of grand and youd need a lot of air bottles/dive tanks as well as C02 to power it.
Also i dont think Jon can bring it to all the series 2002 events although that would be brilliant - particularly open events when you want all the shots you can get - but i was told it would be at the next simply the best event for sure.

Also i was talking with Meesta Payne at STB woodland coz he wants a proper compressor unit to bring round the tournies - there appears to be a problem with insurance and the fill nipples on most air systems - insurance for the compressor requires a higher standard of nipple than most air syystems have??

Phone Jon is probably your best bet

Does any one know where I can find out how the Genesis machine works???

Probably try Jon Payne again!

At my site the person who sorted us out with a compressor did a lot of research and found out that you can use one to fill the big bottles or dive tanks, but you aren't allowed to use them to fill your bottle on your air system. This is because different laws apply and your insurance may become void because. I think this was to do with the nipples on the air system, but i'm not sure.

Hope this helps

that'll be why the n v's s will have a compressor to fill the dive tanks but not the marker air systems then. i was wondering about that

i was told by warped that the cost per fill for a dive tank will be £3 and fills for the CO2 £1. This was a few weeks ago so to be certain a quick call to paul ?? I'm still going to take three dive tanks though just in case there is a problem with the compressor. I would HATE to have all that paint waiting for me and no way of firing accept with a slingshot!
