    Hey all - Scored a Big Red Air Machine 80 gallon vertical tank and a Schultz MSV30MAX pump. I was told by the seller that they were originally assembled together with a 7.5hp motor which is long gone. Aside from what appears to be remnants of a butchered pressure switch, that's all I have to...

    "Cinder" block garage - encapsulate somehow?

    My garage is pretty old. We estimate that is was initially built in the 30's or 40's. It is a detached 2 car 2 story building. My question is what can I apply to the block to keep it from deteriorating - currently, if I rub my hands over the block, it feels like sand falling off of the...
