So I'm setting up my garage in my new house that we got last year. I just upgraded to a 60 gallon 220 volt belt drive oiled type air compressor and was wondering what size hard air line I should run from my shed where the air compressor is into my garage. I currently have a 3/8" rubber line with 1/4" tool fittings. I'm aware that the larger the size piping, the greater volume I would get which would benefit the tools more so than the typical rubber line. My choices are 1/2" OD and 3/8" ID, 5/8" OD and 1/2" ID and I think anything larger would be too much for what I'd be doing as a hobby. They have 3/4" and 1" hard lines but I think that is a huge over kill. With that being said, I upgraded my compressor from a 30 gal. to the 60 gal. as my sand blasting cabinet had the old compressor constantly running. The 60 gal. works perfectly for the amount of blasting that I do.
Anyone who has done this sort of thing to their garage, any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian
