I have 4 B18-04-FK00B on the shelf. This is 1/2" with plastic bowl and bowl guard. Flows 121 SCFM at 60psi. Let me look and see if I can put a combo together with separate components.
Check the flow of the regulator if that is available. Just because you have a bigger inlet (3/8) doesn't mean it will automatically flow more air, especially when dealing with regulators and filters.
I have the Atlas 8000 from Greg Smith, got it with the jack and the accessories listed on the site. It's listed for $2595 with free freight (you will have to add the jack in if you want it) It stores cars most of the time and goes up and down maybe 2 times a month.
Correct. The cylinders are single acting, meaning that fluid is only on the extend side. When the valve is open to lower the lift, the fluid drains back in to the tank, pulling air back into the head of the cylinder via a vent.
Hydraulic filters are directional (they only flow in one direction.) Since these systems do not recirculate, the fluid is pumped out extending the cylinders and when the pressure is released, the weight of the lift pushes the fluid out of the cylinders and back thru the line to the reservoir...
This works, I started spraying my mower deck after my experience racing motocross here in the mid-west. I spray the undersides of the fenders before riding and it makes washing bikes a breeze. If it is going to be a mudder, cover the rotors and go to town! Mud builds up to some degree, but...

True Jerry cans. they make small ones as well and a free flow spout. Expensive, but well worth the money. I have 2 20l and 1 10l. My son and I race motocross and these have been thrown in and out of a trailer damn near every weekend for years.
I would wipe down with simple green, dry and then use a pre paint prep specific for cleaning prior to paint.
Use something like this:

Awesome table. I have an old fixturing table I bought from a guy in Detroit. 1/2 inch holes drilled and tapped on 2" square. I had the same trouble you did! Getting it out of the truck and onto the stand I made was a challenge for the old hoist! Great table though. Yours looks to be as stout!
I have this lift from Greg Smith Equipment.

I am in central Ohio if you want to swing by and see it.
I use it for the same purpose that you want one for. Storage. It goes up and down maybe 3-4 times a year.... Works perfectly for that!
40 micron is pretty large and are usually sold with cheap filters. Wilkerson stuff, links above, come standard with 5 micron and can get down to .1 micron. Probably no need to run a desiccant at the point of use. You run the risk of the compressed air picking up the desiccant and combining...
