" you should have gotten a wonder woman tool box" ?

Long Story short... i am playing contractor for my sister, who's first contractor took the money and ran.... i had an inspecter come in to tell her what they needed done to get an occupancy permit. there is a new furnace in the garage that needs a wall with a 20 minute burn door. i have never...

they held off until thier stock was gone, then they had to bring in the new stock at this years prices and couldnt keep the prices where they were. its amazing how when hard times hit everything is more expensive.

all williams tools that start with letters and end in numbers are US made, the only ones that are made in the asias are the ratcheting combination wrenches. Williams badges all made in the USA tools on their site with the flag. if you dont like import tools then stay away from the williams...

they have always had an import line. its mostly the stuff that they make for S-O... oops i was warned by my Williams rep never to say that again. oh well the cats out of the bag.

Guys, I had these Custom Manifold Blocks made up for a customer, Dumby me, didnt make a no return policy on them and all but 9 of them got returned to me. a quick description is that they are made from 6063 T5 Aluminum with a black anodized finish. They are all 4" long, x 1.5" square stock...

thats the color that Curtis Uses too. having a manchester tank isnt any giveaway, most MFG's use them. it could be a Kellog, but that pump looks like an old Champion R-15? see if there is a tank number on the badge plate "NBB number" you might be able to trace it with that as long as it was...

I love old ricer bikes too, you guys can keep your harley's. a bike that makes you look like a circus bear is way more cool!

I was approched by a gentleman today with a new idea, he calls it the caulk-n-walk, basically a caulking attachment for any drill or screwdriver. heres the link http://www.caulk-n-walk.com he wants a backer to start manufacturing this thing. seems like a good idea, but we are not in the...

red dragons!

no problem, glad i could help, if i actually helped at all.

I am familiar with that sharpe unit, the pressure drop shouldnt be that much through those 3 stages. although those are made to be mounted inside paint booths and regulated down to about 40 psi on the outlet (so most people wouldnt notice the drop), and not meant to supply treated air to an...

uh..... i guess everyone is just being nice, but those picutres are just black blobbs.

dont get me wrong. I am not bashing Big Box Compressors, but there is a big difference between and campbel hausfeld "6hp" direct Drive, and A Quincy QT-5, a BIG diff. addition: Mainly the actual hp, and the ACFM, no one finds it odd that the larger 6hp CH doesnt provide half as much cfm as...

your concern with the sharpe dryers 1/4" inlet tube is silly, 200+ cfm desicant dryers use small inlets and outlets with about 5 psi pressure drop and zero volume restriction. restiction through filters should be addressed at linlet with a regulator, plus, pressure drop through a filter is no...

Quincy Hands Down.... unless you dont have 2-3 weeks to wait for one. They both are most likely around 79 to 80 dBa loud enough to hear them but not so much that your teeth rattle.

because the smallest REAL air compressor (belt driven motor and pump) are 5 hp's that make 15-17 cfm at 100 psi. anything smaller is just a toy. Chicago Pneumatic's RCP series 3.5 hp and under are really good REAL air compressors just search Chicago Pneumatic RCP-220P (2hp 20 gal) RCP-226VP...

point of use FRL's, its a little more expensive than doing an inline system, but at least you know what you're getting with a point of use unit. the big plus is that you dont contaminate any system piping with a point of use system.

I've done a little bit of everything, but i am currently a compressed air systems engineer (BS title thats just on my card) and a tool salesman (pretty much the doall guy around here)

if you go with a CP (chicago pneumatic not Central Pneumatic) right now you get a $40 mail in rebate with your purchase. you can get them for around $700 depending on where you go. The Florida Pneumatics are pretty good for their price too.
