thats a bit steep considering you'll only use the one size. Using a hole saw i just cut a MDF blank the size i need (3") & fitted a spare compressor fitting i'd got, job done

I've also cobbled one up in the past, but it would be quite nice to have one on the forum, like the code reader and could be loaned out when needed.

I made one up using a hub nut cover off the back of a saxo and drilled it to take a tyre valve.

In the 2 and a bit years I've been on the forum, that code reader has never been found lol.

The pressure tester looks like it could have a dual purpose as a drain rodding tool.

Drain pressure testers looks similar, but have a pipe and gauge.
