Vintage Schaefer air blow gun valve assembly

Is this the right kit for this one? It seems as if they have two vintage styles and some more modern ones, I can't find a model no. For this stylr

I think the older ones are in the basement. I can't get down there yet as I am still having pain from kidney stent change. But I found a patent with a photo that might help you out. Also a pdf of the patent. I added notes in picture to parts you seem to be missing.

Thank you Bill. That
Ames sense, I think I can turn that part and find a suitable washer, when you are up to it, it would be good to confirm sizes. I will post pictures as I go along

This Old Tony on YouTube made an airgun from scratch. Maybe you can get some ideas on how to get your "antique" up an usable.

That was a great build by this old Tony, he has some cool videos. I did watch that one, it uses a shuttle valve, the bore in my gun I think as Bill found in his diagram is a diaphragm valve, I don't think it can be modified to take a shuttle valve. It is a solid piece in comparison to a harbor freight gun I have, the button is kind of cool and different.

Never under any circumstances use an air blast near a machine tool, this is strictly forbidden.

Depends on where you work, what is forbidden; in a big shop doing heavy work it is nearly necessary and can be done with care to avoid blowing chips into places that they do damage; such was the shop where I served my apprenticeship about 50 years ago.
