Hi everybody, After travelling around the world for some time to study jewelry and engraving I got back home to Italy and I am slowly setting up my studio.
I will be buying a lindsay in the next week or so (Classic with foot pedal) and I am doing a bit of research on regulators and compressed air etc..
I would buy all the regulators ect from Lindsay but I am REALLY tight with money (in Italy we pay 21% VAT on what we buy overseas), so I decided I'll see if I can make my own regulators and buy a foot pedal that fits the entire setupand spend less money on the process, it takes a bit longer but for now I do have spare time..
I've come up with a couple of questions while researching the subject:
If anybody knows more specifications about the subject, feel free to post them, any help is welcome.
Thanks everybody in advance,
Simone
P.S. Just to clarify, I'm going with an AirGraver because that's what I learned with and I don't want to try new systems right now, I'll be doing it in the future if money allows it.

I've come up with a couple of questions while researching the subject:
- What kind of hoses are used for the foot pedal and for the airline to the tool? what about the compressor to regulator hose?
- What kind of valve is used under the foot pedal, or alternatively what kind of footpedal is that (I know it's pneumatic but does it have some specifics to it?)
If anybody knows more specifications about the subject, feel free to post them, any help is welcome.
Thanks everybody in advance,
Simone
