Todays project. I'll get the 400 one.

Nice home for the compressor.

Insulated and sound board. Little mud, paint, door knob and it will be done. Put a vent on the bottom also.

I put some filter material on the inside of those vents. It will help keep it a little cleaner and hopefully muffle some of the sounds that comes through the vents.

Good idea.

Ran about 30' of 3/4" pipe. Slopes down hill to a drain, put my moisture separator off to the side. Should work good. Now if I had a paint gun.

Ordered a DeVilbiss primer gun 2.2 tip.

I haven't checked in here in a bit,
I really like your workspace Dave, and your compressor closet is

my dad gave me a small oil-less compressor....I really need to build an insulated box for that thing cause it is LOUD!!!

I heard those oil less one's were loud. Just put it outside.

watahyahknow · 08-16-2010, 12:44 AM

if the compressor is small enough maibe you can put it inside an old fridge just need to add a couple of vents to that one of those toploader ones works whell as there a bit wider front to back

Nice job Dave.

daverod · 08-17-2010, 11:29 PM

The beginning on my paint booth.

Ipaintgrt · 08-18-2010, 12:13 AM

In the past when I have had to use a paint booth I have been able to rent one for $100 or $200 from a local body shop. That may be a more affordable option for you instead of building one. Just a suggestion. I really like your build. S

watahyahknow · 08-18-2010, 12:43 PM

friend of mine had a plastic tent he made for that purpose simple frame stuck in buckets of cement with a fan into one side , you do need a paintmask with its own oxigen before going in there those paintfumes does weird things to braincells and lifeexpectancy in general

You don't think a resp. will work? I'll have to do some checking.

I don't have many cells left.

I guess it's ok as long as it just does weird things to them.

watahyahknow · 08-18-2010, 03:21 PM

i personally used a full facemask hooked to the shop air the compressor was standing outside the shop i had a belt to hook the shop airhose too with a small waterseperator a short armlength hose with connector for the paintgun and a reducer for the mask , it didnt allways smelled nice and you has a sour trouth afterwarths but its healtier than the paintfumes , i used to paint bigrigs in my younger days

bubba327 · 08-26-2010, 11:50 PM

daverod · 08-27-2010, 02:47 PM

bubba327 · 08-27-2010, 02:57 PM

Post # 442 is really interesting but where are your headers ? Maybe they are hooker headers --That is an offenhauser in the picture also. Thought you had a Clifford intake

Sure are picky.

daverod · 08-27-2010, 06:30 PM

How about page 55 # 1353.

Sorry it was lunch and I was in a rush.

I think you should just get it. You won't be sorry.

The headers were cheap.

ruffrida2005 · 08-27-2010, 10:16 PM
