Brass Ball Check Valve: a Steel Ball on a Lapped Conical Seat
A check valve lets water or air through one way only. In a ball check valve a ball closes on a conical seat, pushed there by reverse flow or by a light spring (Wikipedia, Check valve). This one is built from two brass fittings, a seat turned from brass rod, a steel ball and a spring. The build is ours.
The picture: our drawing.

Turn the seat
Turn a short plug of brass rod to a press fit in the bore of the first fitting. Drill it through, a little smaller than the ball, and countersink the outlet end to a cone that the ball sits in.

Lap the seat
Put a trace of lapping compound in the cone, set the ball in it and turn it round under light pressure until the seat shows a bright, unbroken ring. Clean off every trace of compound.

Press the seat into the first fitting with the cone facing downstream. Drop in the ball, then a light spring that just holds it on the seat, and screw on the second fitting so its end keeps the spring in place.
