Thank you for allowing me to join! I have many years experience in Many Aspects of Welding Fabrication/Repair, Electronic/Electrical Manufacture and Repair, Computers and PLC Programing, Mechanical Maintenance, Hydraulics/Pneumatics, Machining and Polishing, and Air Compressor Systems.

Currently my project is building a Garage Air Compressor Air Drying System...

Hope to meet up with some of the members and gain wisdom from others.

Hi Sponge1963 - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Sounds like you have a very valuable skill set

How is the air compressor drying system coming along?

Just bought all the equipment this afternoon... A few hours of Sweating ahead I think... then mounting and I can let Y'all know the results.

Hi Sponge1963,

Welcome!

Sounds like an interesting and useful project. Post a few photos of the completed system - we'd love to see your work.

Ken,

I fit up the Cooling Coil today... Time to sweat some pipe. Looking for a way to accomplish a 1/2" or 3/4" Flexible Rubber Hose, but my local supplier moved. Looking for some Semi-Tractor Brake Hose... definitely rated over 175 PSI.

Pictures will come... cleaning up first though...

Okay everyone...

Test and Rest Day... After the Shop is tidied up a bit.
A few pictures of the Air Compressor Air Drying System with a Desiccant Regulator/Filter Output X 2. Still have a few finishing touches to make after doing a final leak test. I need one more mount for my Second Output.

Now I can use my sandblaster, without aggravation... enjoy!

After a return parts visit to a distributor... I now have a three output system. All with Quick Change connectors, and improved filtration. After fixing a few minor leaks and some better mounting and water removal, everything is great.
