Very nice setup!
Really nice! Do you have any stories to share of any problems you had setting it up? We are probably looking at trying to build something like this in the very near future.

Stories..well ill tell you how i aquired it. Where I'm from not many people dive , so when the dive shop had closed the owner was asking 7500. Knowing I could afford that I forgot about it ehile drooling at the same time.
A year or so went by and seen he had it back listed for sale for 4500, with a new baby I knew my wife would kill me if I spent that much money, (even though she dives). So I contacted the gentleman and ask about if he would be interested in doing a trade. I told him that I had a commercial Miller welder. I got this welder from a TVA sale for 300, I figured he would turn me down but all he could say was no. turns out he was wanting a welder so the deal was made
A long stort short I got a compressor without my wife killing me, it had 16 original hours when I got it. It now had almost 100, its took a little saving here and there but almost to where I want it.
