Dumpster Find
Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2022 7:47 pm
Was taking out the trash a few weeks ago and found this little gem in the dumpster behind our shop.
As best I can figure, the compression fitting had rattled loose and the plumbing assembly connecting the motor to the tank was no longer a closed system. All the air was just blowing out like crazy.
Went down to the ACE hardware and got a $3 NPT pipe plug and it works like a champ.
I guess it's some kind of compressor for trim work and roofing? Don't know what the design advantages are, but the dual tanks were cool.
I ended up giving it to my buddy since I've already got a 20 gallon Campbell Hausfield.
