I guess my quotes around "knock out drum" and the explanation a few posts above about why I did that was just too subtle. In any event, thank you CNGsaves sincerely for clarifying the name of the device, and perhaps a little less sincere of a "thank you" for the Google lesson.:D Now off to do...

Here are some photos of what I found showing the "knock out drum" design. One design is from Falcon67, the other is from akdiesel, who both posted in 2012.

Thank you for the responses to date. They are helpful. Regarding some of the inquiries, my garage is small, only about 24 feet by 16 feet. I mainly want to be able to just use basic air tools. Nothing has to reach too far. But I like to have things very neat and out of the way. I do not...

It is a little narrow. I would like it to be wider. But it is the most that I can reasonably afford to build given financial and lot size considerations. I did measure with both doors wide open the width of the car I expect will spend the most time in there and 14 feet will do with still a...

Hi, I originally posted this content yesterday in the General Garage Discussion forum, but now think it would have been better to post here. So that is what I have done. New member. Lurked for a while. In the process, have been just amazed at the amount of incredibly interesting and helpful...
