Mynock cave - Falcon Oxygen Mask

[Rubibilly]

Or would someone want to sell me their Mynock cave mask set too?

Hello, sorry to resurrect an older thread, but I'm trying to do a close-enough build of this prop and can't find some dimensions I need.

The Buffalo Filter smoke evacuation hose cited earlier in this thread has a listed diameter of 7/8" (doesn't say ID or OD!). Do the nonrebreather facemasks that people were using have a standard size outlet for that bottom tube? That measurement is never stated in the descriptions. Does the smoke ventilation hose fit the nonrebreather facemasks universally, or were people using adapters of some kind to connect the hose? My thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide. Cheers!

I don't know if it helps people, but a while back lonepigeon publicly let us know the greeblie in the one port is a cross-shaped knob, originally red, and not the cross shaped BOC cap. I can't remember the thread, there was a tight screenshot he showed us.

I think in the same screenshot there is a piece of the V8 engine as well, it looks like the arm of that FX-7 medical droid. Maybe this will help with dimensions?

22mm i believe

Just to be clear, so the adapter that goes from the bag and inserts into the bottom of the opening in the mask is 22mm? The smoke evacuation hose will slip over that? That adapter has a nipple on it for the thin oxygen tube - do people just dremel that off?

Here's a pic of the red knob again.
Can scale from Sony TC-67 button or V8 parts.

This is the closest mask I could find in the uk. The hose just slips over the top. The part of the mask that connects to a smaller tube can just be pulled out.

Thanks very much. That's exactly the sort of insight I was looking for. And thanks lonepigeon for your info, though it was not really what I needed right now. Much appreciated!

I’ve joined the club
I noticed you can get the original lever to close close to the body if you remove the plastic piston.

The piston kind of looks like the DV6 d ring cap too lol
