So what are you guys using to make the full port easier to get to and where do you buy it?

Oh c'mon,you mean you don't like using pliers? Lol I believe on the one I was using a washer was used to raise fill port just enough to grab with fingers.

A pair of cheap curved hemostats (serrated) which can be had for just north of $5 on amazon. Light, and easily carried in the field and clipped on any wearable attire. A multi-tasker for lots of other uses as well.

I plan to try something even simpler; a piece of string tied around the sleeve......nothing to carry around and no fingernails needed. Expecting delivery within a few days according to AOA.

I haven't decided if I'm going to machine the hole larger or add an extender. Will decide when it shows up.
Ridiculous they couldn't have done it with a decent size hole or cap/gasket like Daystate does.

Does anyone know if any of the fitting manufactures or FX is looking into a longer body on the air fitting?
Looks like they could sell thousands.

Why do you think this is constructed so different just because its has the name airbrush in it ? I really doubt all the various connections you can buy for airguns are rated/tested for anything.
Anyway, i have 1 on the way so will put a plug in it and test it up to 4700 psi which is max at work. If it blows ill let you know.

Airbrush is under what type of pressure maybe 100 psi? So yeah I would keep that in mind.
Me personally yes I only buy rated parts. The down side is they cost more.
Either way, keep us posted how it works out.

Glad a work around is coming, much needed though to me it would be nice if all standard equipment could be used.
Please pardon my going OT here.
gixxer3000,
The AIRBRSH hose you link to is rated ( for safe use ) at 60psi MAX. Please don't do it and while it may not be on you ( or any given poster) we must remember some people will read something one time, believe it to be true and run with it.
Perhaps you can buy a 4,500psi + hose that hasn't been tested, but you CERTAINLY can buy a hose that has been tested to 4,500psi+ ( many use the 7,000psi as a working psi test ) and ONLY the highest rated and tested hoses should be used.
As the hose you want to test is rated at 60psi DO be very careful in testing. Better yet just call the company who makes it and explain you wish to use it for 3,000-4,500psi filling if high pressure tanks and want to make certain it is safe. As long as you have someone who carries some liability ( and insurance ) on said hose I'd wager a dollar they advise against it's use.
