    Pics of outside compressor room

    i run my compressor outside and it reaches -45 celsius here. which is about -42 f, for you americans. but mine is only 5 feet from my garage. i have not had a problem with mine freezing, but i guess i can attribute that to being a little closer than you. mine blows any moisture right through...

    you will love not using flux cored wire. i have the same welder and i used it for a year with flux core wire. i hated it but it got me through. now i turned it to gas and man, it sounds way better, feels way better, and no mess to clean up after. i cant imagine doing your car with flux core. i...

    Compressor piping

    i used 1/2" copper for mine. the only thing i regret is installing it at just above waist height. i will redo it this summer right at the ceiling. when you go to hang anything on the wall, you have to be concious of that line there. i would think that a person can talk themselves out of using...
