David, how does it breath ?
Does it hold during neg and pos checks ?

Kev
I had a couple of problems with the first set of mushroom valves, however that fixed now It holds pos/neg checks perfectly & breathes slightly heaver that my Drager (stiffer mushroom valves) - but perfectly acceptable however if i am to be really critical I would say that it is a little noisier than a comercialy made one.

I dare say the MK1 model wont make it any further than the pool, however it was great fun to make & learnt a lot from doing so. I hope to make a MK2 soon, so any sugestions in how I could improve it.

Cheers
Dave
