Same thing here, I just ran a drain hose outside. Turn off the compressor at the end of the day, pull the line until the drain runs clear.... Done.

Probably ok? But I'd be real nervous of placing electrical boxes on the same stud in which water could potentially leak down onto one day.

I put a giant planter on either side of my big garage door filled with catnip to attract the neighborhood cats. No more mice in the garage or the house.

Welding that far down in an aluminum hole, would almost certainly damage the material in the hole. Heads are off, take it to a machine shop. Best $20 you'll ever spend.

Safety glasses when using power anything to prevent any immediate effects... Respirator for paint & chemicals to prevent decades later effects.

The foam tape idea is solid. You can also use silicone RTV, but let it fully cure overnight on only 1 side before installing. Creates a rubber sealing surface.

The phrase you get what you pay for seems to be relevant here. Here's an interesting video I found a while back on the subject:

A picture of your current setup would be worth a 1,000 words.

I was watching this guy for a few days, it's pretty interesting how they drill and repair wells.

I bought one of those store brand oilless ultra quiet compressors for around the house things. Pretty amazing how much air it puts out and you can barely tell it's running. Similar to this one on YouTube: The video makes it seem louder than it is in person.

Actually, a TV is a good addition to a garage. I have one connected to a computer as a third monitor in mine. Use it to loop weather radar when storms are around, display reference images for what ever is being worked on, stream security cameras, or have an occasional music concert running in...
