Thanks for taking the time to do this!
Not a prob, I have been meaning to for awhile!
Thanks bud. Im going to round up parts today. Thanks for the UKC Army group. Great group of folks willing to share advice.
Glad people are finding use in these videos and the group! I appreciate the support!
After following your guide and using your hopper design for the past few months I realized my container is taller than yours, and in order to get a good cloud I needed to extend the air lines going into the hopper so they were almost touching the bottom of the bottle instead of using the length you state in the video. All the sudden my second coats are actually sticking because the air is blowing up from under the power instead of onto the powder! This whole time I kept wondering what I was doing wrong lol!
thats so awesome im glad it helped!
Thanks for the video! In case anyone is cracking the cap when drilling the holes, put duct tape on top and in the inside of the cap. Then drill the holes. Once the holes are drilled, remove the tape.
Great tip!
please consider doing a beginner setup instructions video for first time sandblasters and powder coaters. sick video
With what kind of information?
@@UnknownCoatings from the perspective of just getting started. basic setup of compressor to lines, regulators and filters and where they typically should be placed for optimal function/benefit, etc. maybe there isnt a huge demand for setup walkthrough for beginners but the info that DOES exist is vague and all over the place. some bits of info poorly filmed/explained, scattered across different channels, etc.
Very informative,buddy like how you go in detail for detail.
I appreciate it
Hey. Great video but i have a question. How do you set this up with your machine? I would love to see how this is actually being used on the machine. I have one that has a big hopper for 25lbs and i would like to switch it to only using these little ones as it looks easy to switch to different colors. If you have a short video explaining how this is hooked up to your machine i would like to see that. Thanks in advance!
I found u-line has really nice jars for this. Made a little fluidizer set-up out of a mini jar.
Thanks for the video! Going to be making a few of these very soon.
lemme know how they work out
Once again thank you for the video.
Absolutely, always glad to help!
What's the white tubing you're using into the NPT side of the barb fitting? I've tried repeatedly to drill PEX and it's always a chewed-up mess, and your tubing looks a lot more rigid than PEX.
Awesome dude ! thanks!
no prob!
When I drill holes in plastic I run the bit backwards. It melts through and it's really clean and there's no risk of cracking.
good tip
Thank you SO MUCH!!
No prob, hope it helps!
Perfect timing...One of my folks' dogs just chewed up one of my hoppers.
Now, who wants to split a case of 16oz bottles? :D
I can’t find Pex tubing in less than 100 foot roll.
@@whitepony007 got any plumber friends? Or a plumbing business you could ring up and ask for a few feet from?
@@whitepony007 So I started building one...I found the 1/2" PEX in 5' sections at all of our local big-box stores around here.
Now I need to know what thread-size of fittings he ordered for the air inlet. I know the quick-connect side is 1/4", but what is the NPT side he drills and stuffs hose into?
both local hardware stores had small pieces only a couple feet long
Good instructions
Hopefully it explained all the stuff people needed help with!
Great information!
Thank you, I made 5 of them , question can you tel what is the amount of powder you can put in these hopper to be the more efficient ? Like full , 3/4 ,2/3 ...
It seems like the 1/2” barb fittings you were using for the pickup tube is a 1/2” npt and not a 3/4” npt. My 3/4” fittings were too big for my 1/2” PEX tubing
Thanks!
No problem!
Thank you for sharing. How big are the holes you drilled into the center tube?
Great vid
I appreciate it!
thanks for sharing man......
Always glad to helP!
Could someone tell me what those little glass tubes with the powder in them because someone found some and we need to know because last time he found tubes containing concentrated powdered citric acid snd he was going to smash them open we had to call hazardous disposal to dispose of them.
great informantion thanks for all your videos\
Stoked people are finding them useful!
Can you tell me the size of the hopper? The link you put has a bunch of container.
Hi can this be made for a Colo? Asking because the Colo has 2 lines coming from the unit, not just one..
I dont believe so
Think that this can be done with a home depot sized bucket?
Could you nix the T for box feed style systems like the colos? Thinking you could just use the red and black air lines...
This can potentially be adapted for other units!
Hey bud. The fluidizing tubes, how far away from the bottom of the hopper are they? Thanks 🇦🇺
i have no idea, couple inches, I will measure one when i can !
I may have missed it in the comments but I was wondering how long is the pecks tube in the center of the lid
I'll eventually get some going, but any chance your willing to make / sell one for me?
bro i bought a jars but they came without the seal gasket cause the uline ones the shipping to me is double of the cost of the jars what can i use for make them seal?
I’m assuming the 5/8 tubes is standard pvc
Can you tell.me how far off the bottom the outlet tube is. They were out of stock on the 32ounce containers so I used a different brand.
What the hole spacing on the main tube of the three holes? Also how long do you run the hose from your hopper to gun? How much do you fill up the hopper with powder? Thanks
nomore than 2/3 of the way full, I dont know the measurements, I can check tomorrow
Hoses are 8 foot
Also are you shooting metallic's with this setup. Thanks
This may be kind of a strange question, but what NPT size are the air inlet fittings you used? I know the QD side is 1/4" OD, but what thread is the other side? Thanks!
i think 3/8
@@UnknownCoatings Thanks. I ended up measuring my chewed-up hopper (that used the two-tube, newer-style lid) and went with 1/8" NPT male on the other side. Still need to drill them out, but they seem like they'll be fine.
Hi. What is your professional advice to achieve a polished rose gold? Thank you! 🙂
Where do you hook up to the top part of the T fitting? Is that air coming in??
Yes
what size holes in the internal middle pipe?
What is the issue with the new "vortex" style hoppers?
most people are complaining about sputtering powder. I admit I dont have one to even test. I just had countless people asking me for this style since my clouds stay so nice.
I’m assuming that the center pecks tube is also 4 1/4 inches long
i leave it 3/4 from the bottom of the jar.
RA is whats up.
Hello. Can I use any hopper on any powder coating gun?
Example: Can I use this hopper on a optiflex 2 gema clone?
Thanks
Not effectively, no
Could you tell me how long the PVC tubing is that goes into the Hopper
depends on the hopper I tend to go about 3/4"-1" from the bottom
nice bro.
i appreciate it!
How long is the pecks tub in your hopper
What size are these containers, link goes to a page with multi option
hmm i wanna say 30oz off the top of my head, if that isnt an option, let me know I will jump on and find em!
The last ten seconds of the video tho!
#LMDB
How many ounces is the container in the video?
I legit cant even remember. 16 I think?
"You can tell its just a guy drilling holes" lol!!
It legit is. No consistency
What is the tubing that you are drilling the holes in
pex or pvc
@@UnknownCoatings is that like a 1/2 inch tubing?
I'm confused not by the build or design but as a noob, all I have is a eastwood basic bitch powder gun. Im assuming this is obviously incompatible but im not too sure what gun to get for this video to apply
Hes using Columbia coatings gun.
yeah unfortunately this isnt universal, it can be used with many setups but not all

First "Like" haha but I had inside info on the upload
At the end he said he was going to show us how to clean these out? Must of forgot.
episode 80
No pasa nada
I built mine just based on looking at yours in the vids. Used a little different parts and didn’t need to hit glue. Link to 1/4” bulkhead fittings
smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06Y2854SJ?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
Thats for the center bulkhead bro?
@@exemjazhuel3428 no, they are the push fittings for the sides (two hoses) the center is a 1/2” barbed 90° fitting.
Did you use the 90* fitting as the same style of the 1/4 dif you got the link for the middle one ?
