A method of filling propellant into an aerosol container
An improved Aerosol Filling Machine has a chamber seal engaging the bottom of a valve cup on the container. A chamber in the adapter is pressurized to open an aerosol valve and to fill the container. Pressure reduction in the chamber allows the aerosol valve to close, independent of the seal, and without content “spit-back”. Alternative structures and methods are disclosed. An aerosol filling adapter for use in filling an aerosol container having a valve cup therein, and through an aerosol valve, with gas, said adapter comprising: an adapter housing; a reciprocal adapter body in said housing; an adapter holder mounted on said adapter housing; an adapter valve in said holder,[..]

Build a Bottle Rocket
A bottle rocket is a small model of a skyrocket. They are special types of rockets that are designed to soar into the sky rapidly before it explodes. They are made up of a rocket engine that is attached to a stabilizing stick. It gained the name "bottle rocket" because of the custom to put it in a bottle where the rocket engine is lit and the bottle guides the object to ascend in the sky. There are various versions of bottle rockets: the fireworks ones and the plain types designed for just flying. HOW BOTTLE ROCKETS OPERATE The fireworks bottle rocket has a tube filled with a kind of explosive material. When it is ignited, the explosion that is set off pushes the rocket into the air.[..]
The 303 British Rifles
The year was 1888 and Europe was in an uproar. Two years previously France came out with the Lebel rifle and the revolutionary smokeless powder. For a couple of years France was one up on everyone else and that had the powers to be upset. The advantages of the new propellant weren't lost on anyone. You could produce ammo with more range and less smoke which made it harder for an enemy to spot you. Greater range and the ability to carry more ammo were also advantages that were looked favorably upon by various nations. That year 1888 Great Britain introduced the 303 in the Lee Medford bolt action rifle. A bit of a head scratcher was that they introduced it with a charge of 70 grains of[..]
Toy Sail Boats - Excellent Tool To Keep Your Kid Amused
Man has been fascinated by the lure of boats both big and small through the ages. In modern times when it is difficult to find the magnificent boats that sailed the seven seas in ancient times people can still get a feel of these vessels, and literally too by starting a collection of toy boats, or miniature boats constructed from toy sail boat kits. Toy sail boats are not only used to adorn the showcases and shelves of toy sail boa enthusiasts, these little novelties can be used, and very successfully too, by mothers to lure their sons into the bath tub for that much needed bath by attracting him to the tub with a toy sail boat that he can play with while he soaks in the bath tub. At[..]
FDA Paternalism Leaves the Poor Asthmatic Gasping
"Primum non nocere", or "first do no harm", is the physician's creed. On September 25th FDA held a workshop to discuss how to best to let consumers know that Primatene Mist inhalers were going to have a new environmentally friendly propellant before 2012. Yet the real issue is why these products remain in the market at all. Decades-old government paternalism continues to put the nation's asthmatics at risk by relegating those who are poor to reliance on an old rescue drug in lieu of inviting them into mainstream medical care. To begin with asthma is not an OTC condition: not truly self-diagnosable, not truly self-treatable. On the contrary asthma is chronic, life threatening, and[..]
The Main Paintball Gun Parts - Know Your Weapon
If you are involved in the sport it is important to know about the main paintball gun parts. You need to understand the components of your marker to ensure its successful working and to facilitate its cleaning and upgrading. Beginners can be over whelmed by terms such as: bottom line adaptors, quick disconnect feed necks, CP micro drops and magic regulators. Essentially, most paintball gun parts will fall into one of the following main categories; body; hopper; tank or barrel. The largest of the paintball gun parts is the main body of the marker. This comprises the bolt and the trigger frame. Bolts help to reduce the ammo breakage caused by a slow feed. The body parts can be detached[..]

People are asking: can you run a car on water, for real? The answer is a most definite: YES. Using water as an alternative fuel source has been around since the 1940's, but it is only now that the man-on-the-street is free to utilize the technology. If you are still skeptical as to whether or not you can run any vehicle on H2O, well... just take a look at all the hybrid cars out there. Many are now curious about this water-hybrid technology, not just out of curiosity's sake. But rather there is this ready desire to try this kind of technology. The most frequent questions people ask are: Why? Simple enough: there are many benefits to converting your car to a hybrid model. However, the top[..]
Gas Airsoft Guns
This article provides detailed information on Gas Airsoft Guns. Gas-powered guns use pressurized gases like propane and HFC134a refrigerant to propel BBs, or little round metal pellets. These guns are commonly known as BB guns. Carbon dioxide and nitrogen may also be used and are more common. Environment friendly Freon (a variety of nonflammable gaseous or liquid fluorinated hydrocarbons) may also be used, but the type of gas used for operating these guns may also depend on the type of gun. Gas power is more commonly used in smaller handguns like pistols. Gas is either injected into a reservoir within the gun or attached to an exterior tank.Gas-powered guns have a few advantages, which[..]
Collecting Die Cast Model Tanks
For those who are considering investing in collecting die cast military vehicles then model tanks may be just what they are looking for. Die cast model tanks can look great no matter how you choose to display them and represent a large portion of the history of military vehicles. In the United States for example no new tanks are being produced. The older ones are sent in for disassembly and then reassembled using the newest technology. By collecting the models of all the older tanks you are keeping the history of the tank alive. Die cast models are very easy to care for. A lightly dampened cloth will easily clean any surface dust and will not chance damaging the paint job. For models[..]
What is LPG?
LPG stands for Liquefied Petroleum Gas. It is a mixture of hydrocarbon gases that are used as a fuel in heating devices and vehicles. Liquefied petroleum gas is a clean-burning fossil fuel that maybe used to power internal combustion engines. LPG-fueled vehicles are environment friendly, as they produce fewer toxic and smog-forming air pollutants. LPG is usually less expensive than gasoline. It consists of hydrocarbons in a vapour state instead of liquids, at normal temperatures and pressures. However, at moderate pressures it turns into liquid. The main constituent of LPG is propane. LPG is increasingly replacing chlorofluorocarbons as aerosol propellant and a refrigerant to reduce[..]
