Default Re: Better fluidizing in the hobby gun?

We are having a custom hopper built for us that we will report on when it gets here. It was built with the hobby gun in mind.
Some of the measures we have taken to insure our powders flow well is
1. Keep all powder in a room that is air conditioned,
2. All powder is stored in air tight containers that have silica gel packets in them
3. No less than 4 moisture filters inline to the gun (including a silica gel cannister that we made).
4. We also tried the holes in the tube for powder pick-up, we are hoping this new hopper will dop the trick. We will keep you posted, should be here next week.
