Thanks! I made the sealing washer from some kind of sheet gasket material, using a set of round gasket punches. I don't remember where I got the material. It's brown, and about 1/16" thick.

I forgot to mention about the pressure test setup... I replaced the gauge shown with a 0-30 PSI gauge. I figured it would be more accurate than the 0-160 PSI gauge.
