Thank You Sam! That's pretty cool, I figured it was newer than that.

I am using my (non-perfect) original porcelain face as the repros printing is not accurate to the early models like mine. Sweet little mechanical design to advance the psi's. 5lbs is the smallest amount that this system is accurate.

The tireflator is operational! I still have to calibrate it, but no leaks so far. I took the frame, wall mount, and outer cowl pieces to the powder coater last week and should see those pieces back in a week or so. Here's a still shot and Bruce will help me post a short video of the meter in action later on...
