Joe is right Ty . Trust me I tried it I was lucky to do an air test of about 60 PSI 1st . otherwise they look good .

Red lock tite might hold it all together for a while.

The Leimbach cyl ends are screwed on & glued.

You might want to try the cyls in a tuppaware container to contain the fluid explosion!

Ok, coming from you two I know I have a problem already. I am going to design cylinder number three now and make some ends that will thread on so I don't have to worry. I'd rather do it right the first time then clean up a mess. I'll get to cracking on some new cylinders later and make them threaded. I hooked up air to the cylinder and I was able to push it to 100lbs of pressure but my pump on a full battery is pushing 165psi.

I'll try to get some more ideas but thanks for the heads up.
