in the meantime I produced a video with voice-over in english: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tliAhiQfzpE&feature=youtu.be The video documents how to build the refill-tool...

I have about 30 refilled cartridges waiting on my shelf. Your postings made me curious. So I controlled them all. I could not find a single cartridge that has ink in its vent. - Really-not kidding. Perhaps you will build my refill-tool and then try to clogg the vent. I was not succesfull up to...

I do not know why you are worrying about the vent. I have refilled over 200 cartridges the way that is presented in the video. I never had any Problems with These refilled cartridges. S o everything seems to work o.k. What would, in your opinion, happen if the vent would be flooded with ink?

I think the biggest advantages of the vacuum-filling-method compared to other methods is that the cartridge stays completely intact. So no ink could evaporate from the ink-chamber or sponge- chamber (which might change the viscosity of the ink). The method where a hole is drilled into the...

@ThrillaMozilla believe me, if the last thing you do before taking off the syringe is pulling the plunger then this action will suck enough ink back out of the sponge so that everything works just fine. Please post any problems you encounter with the device! Would be interesting for me to know...

@CakeHole see my Video for more Details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97u2GxMIsWM&feature=youtu.be

@CakeHole: I already gave you some links to rubber items on ebay you might use (see above answers)

@ThrillaMozilla of course you could use a bigger needle when building your own device. Then you won´t have to pull the syringe that hard. It did not bother me however. Just a training for my feeble body - LOL! I never fill the ink-chamber completely. Go into a shop and let the seller show you an...

and here is the link for the video-instructions for building the vacuum-refill-tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97u2GxMIsWM&feature=youtu.be Sorry, but the voice-over is in German only. Anyway, I think the video provides enough details ... Have fun building your own tool...

@ThrillaMozilla: watch the video of the "Fill Bill 2"-tool again. The "Fill-Bill" works exactly as my refill-tool and is sold for 100-225 Euro in Europe depending on the number of nozzles that comes with the tool. The fact that the ink-chamber fills after the sponge chamber has never caused any...

@CakeHole: or something like that? http://www.ebay.com/itm/RUBBER-gc-SHEET-ROLL-GASKET-NOT-FOAM-SEAL-4-X-48-CUSHION-BUMPER-MAT-/261708151712?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cef057ba0

@CakeHole: perhaps this will work for you: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Geberit-Toilet-Flush-Valve-Seal-Gasket-816-418-00-1-816418001-63mm-x-32mm-H26-/261510972330?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ce344c3aa Of course I could not test seal....

@ThrillaMozilla: do not worry: I use my refill tool for about 2 years and refilled more than 200 cartridges and I never had any trouble concerning "flooding the vent". The air is sucked from the inner Chambers of the cartridge into the upper part of the syringe. So a vacuum is created inside the...

@CakeHole : I used a ring-shaped sealing which is normally used for the flushing-device of a toilet. Here is an example: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Geberit-Glockendichtung-816-418-00-1-Heberglockendichtung-Spulkasten-Dichtung-/251798209357?pt=DE_Haus_Garten_Heimwerker_Bad_WC&hash=item3aa057c34d But...

Thanks for the friendly welcome! You can watch the refill tool in Action on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCCZQtMnDv0&feature=youtu.be Sorry, but it is only available in German. Enjoy!
