FWIW, I made mine, by using the fitting from a compression gauge (the kind
that screws in rather than just being held over the hole). There's a
Schrader valve inside the fitting that has to be removed, then I removed the
hose from the gauge and adapted an air line fitting to it (using a 1/8 NPT
by 1/4 NPT bushing). The whole process is reversible, so I can turn it back
into a compression gauge when I want.
Not certain, but I think this is similar to the gauge I bought

I see they have a more expensive model that includes the airline fitting
