I'm thinking about upgrading my SP-560 to an E-M5 and housing. I can buy the camera with the 14-42 lens or the 12-50 lens. I've never had to deal with ports and rings and all that. Does anyone know if the 12-50 works in the PPO-EP01 port?
Thanks,
Jeff
I tore down a Capitano block over the winter and I'm putting it back together now. I used the parts list from the Bauer site and a workshop manual dated 1988. I'll send you a copy of the PDF if you send me a PM with your email address. If you send me any questions, I'll try to answer them - I've...
Got Pix and need help
I've disassembled everything and have requested parts quotes. A few of the more "interesting" pictures.
The crank is good. Cylinder 1 is going to be honed and I'll put up an after picture next week. Piston 1 and 2 can't be saved. Piston 3 looks like new and the piston...
I was recently given a Capitano compressor head (thanks Craig for helping me with identity and filter) that I hope to turn into a nitrox fill station as a winter project. It needs a motor and some filtration, but I thought the head was reasonable. It does look rough in a couple of spots but as I...
That's what I was expecting, but it was just full of carbon - very wet & oily carbon.
Is anyone still using these little cartridges? It doesn't seem like it would provide much filtration.

I just picked up a used compressor block for a "good guy Price". No motor, just the block on a mount. It needs some work, so it'll be one of the the winter projects. I thought it was a Bauer Capitano manufactured in 1993 based on the Bauer parts lists, but I'm wondering if it might have been a...
Thanks ZDD
I've been doing some more research on this model of Gauge. It has a cap on the bourdon tube. Per the manual -
"The bleeder also facilitates flushing, cleaning and purging. It is an integral part of the Bourdon tube and is accessible by
removal of the blow out back."
This seems...
I picked up a Heise high resolution gauge the other day that I want to use for PP mixing. It has a 4inch face and will register 2000 psi each time around the face. It will go around twice for 4000 PSI. The resolution is 5 PSI and the face is adjustable to set zero - it's a sweet setup.
I...
I've filled about 400 CuFt of air so far and I'm waiting for my air test to come back on the filtration. I ordered a moisture monitor and check valve from RCS - thanks Ray - and will make or buy a hyper filter and do PP mixing at some point this summer. I've given up on the continuous mix plan...
I had called the local Bauer shop to check on filters, oil etc and he said to bring it by and they would do a quick bench check on it. I just got back and the good news is that it runs like new. The slightly bad news is that the overpressure valve was leaking and had to be rebuilt.
The...
After many, many months of searching, I finally came across a "reasonably" priced compressor. I bought a Bauer Junior II wired for 220v in very good condition. Originally I was looking for a continuous duty unit to fill a small cascade but they made me a deal I couldnt refuse.
There is an...
Yes it is attached but no unfortunately my garage isn't insulated. The previous owner did a great job of finishing it with drywall but never insulated it. Did you ever want to grab someone and ask WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!
I can imagine what a little ice could do to a small tube. I didn't get...
Now that I've read the Oxygen Hacker's Companion, I've got visions of building my own home fill station. I found a source for some cascade tanks and have an O2 supplier. The Analyzer, Nitrox Stick and Tank Tumbler are built. A section of the garage (far away from wife's car) is now "reserved"...
I was looking for an extra Buoy and Flag to throw in my boat and I came acress this thing called a pocket bouy. Home
It is a small nylon shell with a baloon blown up inside and a collapsible flagpole attached. It seems similar in concept to my main float which is a nylon shell with an...
This is a bad time to look for a treadmill. Everyone just made New Years Resolutions to work off the holiday meals. By June they will be taking up space in the house. I got 4 offers to take them in the first 2 days.
