Picked it up today and I'm very pleased! This board and it's members have been an invaluable resource tool! Thanks to all!

In a previous thread I learned, I don't want an in-line lubricator! While at TSC I saw a Cambell Hausfield filter/dryer combination. Should I score one of those or just go for an all-in-one regulator/filter?

BTW, here it is:
5 hp single stage
80 gal ASME tank
18.1 SCFM @ 90 psi
135 psi max
Cast iron pump
$668 for this bad boy!

Also picked up a Nitrocat the other day. 1000 lbs of torque! YEAH BABY!!!

Really nice setup; good choice; personally I'm not using a filter/dryer and my compressor has a built in regulator, but I guess it wouldn't hurt. If you have extra money, I'd get one of those automatic drainers like what bmwpower has .. :)

Nice!!!

I think you may find better quality parts with individual components, but that will depend on brand, model, etc. Get a metal bowl/cover if you can. Whatever you pick you will need a regulator and a filter at minimum.

$668?? Good deal. I'm still waiting for my TSC to be built down the road.
