Air Compressor / DIY. ?
I am thinking of building a Compressor at a shop, Where I have some of my Machine Tool Machines located.
I am going to try to use what I have, And make it even Better without Creating another Huge Project. I have a Very good compressor at my House. I am trying to stay away from having a high dollar Compressor that I don't use much. ![]() Here is my Idea for this location. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() At this location the 2 compressor's that are there/ One is in sad shape, But the tank is good and also has a good Vertical tank plumbed in. The other one the Compressor is (Wore Out) and weak, It still builds air but takes a LONG Time. ![]() But the Tank is good , The Motor still runs, Will I Use that motor? Ytbd. My first plan is to buy this. Link: https://www.harborfreight.com/air-to...ump-59193.html Then I will plumb the other tanks into it. I will possibly have 1 of the tanks by my main machine inside the garage. The other 2 tanks will be in the Air Compressor shed outside. If the old Motor does not work out, I will get this one. Link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...DKIKX0DER&th=1 Then a pulley from here. Link: https://www.zoro.com/tb-woods-58-fix...58/i/G0948236/ I may need a new Pressure switch. They are reasonably priced though. Then the Icing on the cake. ![]() ![]() I plan to run a Condenser /Water filter combo something like in the video below. What do ya'll think? It's not really about the price as much as using what I have that is still good.
