[TheForge] compressor setup

Mon Jan 14 16:28:01 2002

Hi Bubba;

   Couple of quick pointers,  I'm going to assume you know proper
wiring, if you don't, get help.

   If you are going to run lines around the shop for various
disconnects and devices, run the line in the largest pipe you can
afford.  I've seen some plastic installations that cut the cost down,
I'm just not keen on plastic.   Anyway...Big Pipe and Long Drip Legs
at each disconnect.

   I can get long winded on this subject if you wish, but I think we
should do that off list.  I've been down this road in a shop that
wasn't plumbed right and I know what we did to solve different
problems with it. In addition the guy I worked with in that shop had
spent years solving air system problems, I'm all ears and questions
around people like that.
