LIFE JUST GOT EASIER
« on: August 03, 2008, 07:31:47 AM »
Thanks to J  for pointing me in the right direction . I was able to pull the rope on the compressor 2 times and it fired off. With in 10 minutes it had my tank toped off . And then I was done . No more 36 mile round trips to the scuba shop and then back again the next day to pick it up . 52 more fills and the investment is paid for . Marvin

I took a couple of pics with it in the garage . I mounted it on some boards with casters so I can wheel it out side when I run it . Exhaust fumes you know. I just toped the tank again so it is going to be paid for in no time .Glade you posted the site I did not know it was around and it saved me a lot of money thanks . Marvin

I'll need to use bigger ones for out here in the gravel, but the idea is definately a good oneI'll need to'borrow' instead of just 'strong arming' it around . . .

Please do that 60 pounds gets old in a hurry . I thought about a dolly but I'm running out of room in the garage and chose this route .Marvin

Note that the compressor and frame is army surplus . With a new Honda motor . I just mention it to you so you are not surprised if you buy. I am not complaining I am very happy with the price but some might be expecting more . The paint on the frame came as you see it . Then again I state I am very happy with it and it cost about 1/2 as much as any thing else. $ 1600 Marvin
