    air regulators and driers

    Whether the comp is too small or not, you should be able to regulate the pressure with a regulator. If you have gone through that many without being able to see a change, maybe you are plumbing them backwards or something? They usually have an arrow for air flow direction. Never had a problem...

    Pole Barn Nails

    I'd go around now if the siding isn't up yet, and put approved screws or nails. PT wood can stay wet in the middle for a long time, that combined with natural humidity and I would not want to take that chance. Small price to pay now...

    Milk Crates

    Great propane tank holders. Great for chains, especially on ATVs... lets them dry out after the snow melts and the mud dries. With studs 16" OC, it is pretty simple to hang them on their sides between the studs with a couple lag screws and washers for quick bins/shelves on your unfinished walls.

    High Solids vs 100% Solids Epoxies

    Sorry to continue the off topic discussion, but I'd just like to point out that a paint may be VOC compliant (which refers to its environmental impact, and does NOT mean zero VOC) and still might be unsafe to apply without a respirator. So, you could have a VOC compliant coating that could...
