I think I'll just go by this:

The pictures show the setup. The compressor is right on the other side of the wall. There's maybe 20 feet of 3/4 inch hard line before the hose connection.

Interesting rotisserie.

OK, I'm confused now.:lol: Do I need the regulator or not?

It seems to be working good now. Just spent a few hours grinding/welding/sanding/sandblasting and it ran the tools fine. It was running through the regulator. So, if I'm not using a spray gun I can take that regulator off and put it on a separate line for use with a spray gun, is that correct...

I went to the local implement and got a 1/2-inch hydraulic hose to run from the compressor to the regulator and it works much better now. No one has 1/2 air hose so i had to go with the hydraulic hose. The pressure still drops so I think I will get a regulator with 1/2 inch inlet/outlet and up...

LOL the tool rips for about a second then the rpms fall off. It's almost an instant drop.:( Let off and I hear the lines fill and the hose tenses up again. It does sound like I'm running the whole system dry so the hose right off the compressor might be ther problem. This compressor should be...

The biggest regulator I can find in any tool catalog only has 1/2-inch inlet and outlet so I don't know how I can make the line 3/4 the whole way. I don't really want to run it without a regulator... Compressor specs: Lubrication Oil-Lube Tank Size Gal. 80 HP (Run) 6.0 Amps @115 Volts 30 Max...

I have an 80 gallon Porter Cable compressor with a short 3/8 line to a regulator/filter, about a 6-inch 1/2-inch run to the 3/4-inch main lines. It runs up the wall, through to the other side. I try to use small air tools like a cut-off wheel and mini grinder and the air line can't keep up. I...

I'm looking for cabinets, too. i'd like to buy them local so i can see them before I buy. Anyone have any ideas? That Gladiator stuff is too expensive.
