Angled valves?
Who still makes an angled valve? I either need some sherwood genesis valves in 3/4" or similar matching L/R valves. I would like to avoid the genesis valves if possible since it took me 4 months to find L/R manifold plugs for the 7/8 set I currently have in my HP 100's.
I would be interested in a set of those manifold plugs. Do you know of any that are available?
I have a Genesis manifold 3/4" with the angled valves that I would be willing to sell. Looks like Northeast Scuba Supply carries the plugs. Let me know if your interested.
I also have I will sell.

how much you want for them? and no Northeast does not have the plugs, this plug has been out of production for a long time and they've been sold out of plugs for a while too.
The one place I did find with plugs wanted $20 each and they're out too now. Unless I buy pre/plugged valves or your manifolds come with plugs, they're is a good possibility it could be sitting unused for a long time just like my HP100's were when I went sidemount and had no plugs for them.
I love angled valves, got three sets of tanks that all use Genesis 3/4" threaded valves.

Make an offer.

I just talked to a machinist that said he could probably make the plugs. They will be exactly like the ones for other manifolds except made with slightly increased barrel length so that both o-rings can seal.
I need a ball park idea how much of a market there is for these? I've gotten a few pm's from people asking about them. Also, what kind of market would there be if someone made complete valves with the angled face? I know someone else I might be able to nudge into making them provided the machining cost isn't obscene and they will actually sell.
I would be interested in 3 sets.
