Note to self: gauge pressure

Posted on March 1, 2014 by Dan under Note to self, Uncategorized

I noticed that when I took up the pipes again after a long layoff, that my blowing pressure was around the 20 psi mark. Today it was around 29-30 psi mark. I guess the diaphragm muscles are getting stronger. That’s an improvement 🙂
