Simple pressure washer tips, or oil pressure restrictor

[jere]

The washer is a 2hp 1600psi Briggs and Stratton sprayer. I have used the tip show about a dozen times now. The oil restrictor in the turbocharger line has been in use for 10 years or so. I don't think either are going any where. The idea isn't crazy but it saved me $35 for the store bought sprayer tips and more for the oil restrictor.

My first attempt at making a sprayer tip was sized too small. It wouldn't allow anything to spray. No lead went launching off or anything like that.

I might try making a fluid cylinder to control lowering speed on a 4x6 bandsaw with this in the future. I have been thinking about using cutting fluid in the cylinder as a cut speed control and to squirt cutting fluid on the blade. This could be a cheap and simple one way fluid valve with a ball bearing and a spring added (and the right shape in the lead to seat the bb)
