Default Deflator calibration tank

I decided using my spare to set deflator psi was a pain in the arse, so I built myself a new tool. New tools are cool! Could have probably built it for less than $80.00 but a digital gauge adds a certain "cool" factor.

What a great idea. I have a tank I use to fix flats we get when out on our dirt bikes. Looks like I'm making a deflator setting unit. Thanks for the tip.

It's so much faster than using a tire, open the valve, let in about 40 lbs air, screw on your deflator and watch the pressure. Adjust and repeat.

Digital gauge makes it easier.
