Hi

I'm on the lookout for a adaptation of the crushed sleeve stager that works with an unrestricted nozzle.

Has anyone seen such a stager?

Even better if it uses materials available in Europe.

Regards Kristoffer

Could you just take an existing design and enlarge it so it uses bigger diameter parts? You would need to just find local parts which are scaled up versions of the plans you are working from. It should work the same, just larger.

Hi

What I was hoping to find is a stager where the mechanism can be attached to the booster by a threaded lamp rod. That way it can used both on a single bottle and a double bootle booster. Using a European(Swedish) PVC pipe meant for electrical wires will give you a 1mm clearance in the bottle neck.

It's just an idea.

It sounds like nothing anyone has ever done before, so you may be on the cutting edge. If you decide to take on the task of inventing it yourself, we would love to follow your progress. It sounds like fun.

Sorry for my late answer! European bottle thread is metric thread diameter 27mm x 3mm pitch.

Thanks for the info. It seems very close to the bottles we have in the USA. There probably is a standard in place for that across many countries.

I never heard of european or USA or any other special versions of Tornado tubes, so aren't the threads on all bottles universal?
