yes thats right ive broke it already! 2nd time i went to use it aswell!

anyway ive got a problem with my f8 i was hoping some1 could shine some light on for me.


basically theres a nasty air issue, the 90 degree elbow attached to the marker (circled in the pic below) is hissing alot of air out so much so it empty's the tank in seconds, and at 1 point actually fired the little metal sealing ring across the room on airing up, ive tried a new elbow new macro line and am getting the same leak, any1 got any ideas?

cheers, Salva.

problem solved again something so small and simple but just incase any1 is bothered....


ive narrowed it down to this... when i first aired it up i guess the macro wasnt in right so it sent the sealing ring on the elbow..... (and an o-ring from inside the elbow) across the room, but i never noticed the o ring go, so i only replaced the sealing circle thingie (techincal terms i know) so i just put a new o ring in and its working great!
