My compressor's tank has a hole in the bottom. Need a new tank. Anyone know a good source to pick up a quality tank at a fair price? I'm checking out marketplace and CL for used option, but concerned I may end up down the same path.

I've been doing some searching, looks like $1000-1200 is an average price for an 80 gallon shipped to the house. Would love to find a distributor within 100 miles or so to go pick one up.

I saw those two tanks in WV for sale. It is tempting to drive up there. Would cost me more in fuel than they cost. Don't want a horizontal tank, where I am putting it I don't want to give up the floor space.

You pretty much have 2 choices. Find a used one and hope it doesn't have the same problem, or bite the bullet and buy a new one. Too bad you're across the country, I have a nice 100 gallon vertical tank

I've decided to purchase a new one. Now it is just a matter of where to buy from. Hoping there is a seller within 100 miles of me that I can go pick it up. If not, has anyone dealt with 'Compressor World'?

Manachester made the 80 gallon tank that came with my new Quincy QT-5, says USA made. Think you have a good choice. Would enjoy seeing pics of your build.
