Thank you!Gorgeous build bro…. Nice job!
I believe you might be right. The 2nd stage wouldn't hold pressure. After the 3rd attempt, I decided to remove the 60psi gauge, as I had a spare. The original thread looked slightly deformed (only the gauge not the regulator). It held pressure for 6 hours and lost about 2 psi. However, when I woke, the pressure was at 0 psi. I went to retest and it will no longer hold. This sound like an internal valve issue? How difficult is it to open and disassemble to access the internal structure?by the way, check the regulator see if the working pressure hold, some times a handle been forcefully turned loose because the user wants to turn it off but it is not(working pressure keep creeping up), due to internal valve leaking problem.
I did open several matheson 3810 to fix the internal leak problem before, none of them have internal parts damage because of all stainless steel internal structure/parts, the leak problem was from internal valve assembly became loose from the valve seat, probably due to external vibration.
eBay is your friend!I have always been envious of these beautiful regulators. Instead I just have some regular one that cost <$100 or so. I wish I knew how to acquire the parts for one of these as they work so much better at the end of the co2 tank. Albeit, I haven’t had issues with mine, but it would be nice to have a shiny easy to use one as well!!

a 4 inch jaw heavy duty bench vise and a wrench big enough for the regulator body cap(front and back hex part), most of the regulators can be opened.I believe you might be right.
