Air compressor lines

[Richard Cranium]

R C , It's a good practice to connect your compressor to the wall with a piece of flexable hose as the air compressor vibrates. Killer shop ! I love it !

Thanks, and I did add the flex hose several weeks ago.

...nice work R.C., but my question is...do you ever use your shop/garage? It looks like very sanitary. I mean, I'm pretty tidy but I see no fuzz, dust, grease, oil spots, etc. Even the door handles look brand new. Keep up the good work.

"Submit" probably cleans it up if she's anything like my wife!!!!!

It all looks brand new, because it all is brand new.

steel rusts - copper doesn't

Copper may not rust but it will corrode anywhere moisture sits. Just make sure lines are run with no entrapments.

The water needs to be acidic not neutral like distilled water to eat the copper
but any air lines you do not want water to be able to puddle so slope to drain

When I got my new compressor, the company I bought it from turned me on to "Quick Line air compressor piping. I have the ability & tools to run hard line piping, but measuring, cutting, threading is a major PIA. A Quick Line kit consist of anodized aluminum tubing & plastic fittings, clamps, fitting wrench, pipe reamer & pretty much everything needed to run the lines easily with no muss, no fuss & no mess. It's a bit pricier than iron pipe stock, but not outrageously higher and the blue pipe looks neat. The only parts I need to get are reducing bushings for the end pieces & a short hose to connect to the hose reel. Here's a kit on fleabay...
