    Air press conversion

    Hi
    If you do an air pressure conversion are all the parts of the original pressure system removed and replaced by the aire system?
    looking at ebay they have one for 60$ since I need all the pressure system parts just thinking of going with air if I do not need to have some the old parts.

    any one know if the ebay system is okay? what does Magma charge for the system.

    Thanks Ed

    Looks good and they MAKE them

    They are from Denmark and shipping is only $14

    I would send the seller a question asking about what, if any, original parts would be needed.
    But to me, it appears self-contained and all original parts not needed.

    Please let us know what the seller says,

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hmmm the scary part is the excise tax. That is not included and is the buyer responsability.
    i had my some tools shipped back from Canada once and the excise tax was 50$. Just because the form was wrong!
    sent some questions. Will wait and see. Feedback from buyers has been good. Wonder if there are any here?.
    ?

    his reply says he sends them as sample parts, so to date no one has paid excise tax.
    all parts are there to make the conversion.

    I think though, I will wait as another member here is helping with the missing parts.

    Hi cbrick,
    thanks for posting, but I was busy and ordered me one over ebay.

    Your posted one would have been cheaper, so.
