Thank you - that helps a lot. I have the pump in the factory holes currently, but with the proximity to the motor, is there any benefit to moving it away from the motor and out so the motor pulley isn't so far in on the motor shaft? Moving the pump away from the motor will also allow me to...

Finally have some pics - and I need some help, I have the majority of the plumbing figured out, but have questions regarding the pump and motor How do I mount the pulley/sheave? Pics illustrate what I'm dealing with - need some explicit directions: Is that too much shaft sticking out of...

Finally getting this thing together (I think I have all the parts I need). I disassembled what was attached to the tank and found oil & some water in the tank. The original petcock style drain was still on the bottom and there was a valve on the port about a foot up on the tank that had a...

Still waiting on RITE products for the pressure switch and magnetic starter. Got the motor from them (drop shipped from Leeson), but for whatever reason the other items on my order from 1/22 has gone unfulfilled so far. I've called them twice and both times was promised a call back and nothing...

Pics are coming... Right after I got the tank & pump, I also received a bunch of kitchen cabinets that clogged up my garage. I need to spend some time getting all that stuff organized so I have some room to actually take pics.

Thanks for the info - does this combination look to be a better solution for the pulley? Bushing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lx1-3-8-Baldor-Maska-1-3-8-In-Bore-Tapered-L-H-Bushing-Hx1-3-8-/351203243883?hash=item51c558376b (ORDERED-IN) Pulley...

I'm looking for 3/4" off the tank for eventual 3/4 piping main run - the TP Tools combo unit in 3/4" only goes up to 125 psi. Would be nice to have more for stubborn nuts with my impact.

Looks like the magnetic starter and pressure switch parts I ordered went on backorder after I bought them - not interested in waiting around, so looking for alternatives to these: Pressure Switch 135/175 PSI 4 port 26a w/unloader (ORDERED)...

So coming from the tank, if I put a valve before the filter, I could close it off to separate it from the tank, release the pressure from a hose and then it would drain (theoretically)?

I got my pulley yesterday and while it's keyed - as is the motor - there is no set screw on it. Do I need to drill and tap it for a set screw or does key do an adequate job of keeping the pulley from walking off of the motor shaft?

For the tank, I had been looking at this one: http://www.rite-products.com/Moisture-Minder-Automatic-Drain-Valve-PN-152-0000-300-PSI-14-NPT-Ports_p_800394.html# I like that it requires no electricity and it empties constantly. The Milton filter has an "automatic overnight drain" - do you know...

Parts are starting to show up :) I've got a few remaining subjects to tackle - namely cooling/filtering and regulator. I'm not planning to run an oiler - I'm in the habit of oiling my tools, so I'd rather not even waste the money on it. For cooling the air to hopefully take a good amount of...

Thanks - got one on order. Thanks - I've not heard of those but love the idea since my garage is only heated when I'm in it. If it will help with longevity of parts, it's cheap insurance. Ordered one up.

Question on Pressure Relief Valve - what value should I get? Pump Max is 175 psi, Tank Max is 200 psi. Do I go with the Pump rating?

Thanks - added one to the list.
