I have had a 20 gal. portable air compressor for some time and finally =
got tired of having to wait for the air to build up so I could operate =
an air tool.

I am purchasing a 6.5 hp with a 60 gal tank.  I will be installing an =
automatic drain valve ($9.99).  Check out www.paragoncode.com for a =
complete installation instruction for this valve.  I will be installing =
an inline F.L.R. and it will housed outside my blacksmith shop.

Since this is my first large tank, I need some help/suggestions.  I will =
run a line through my blacksmith shop with outlets through out the shop =
and on into my wood working shop with outlets through out.  The distance =
from the compressor to the far end of my wood working shop will be 33/34 =
feet.

Does anyone have a suggestion on layout?  What size line should I use to =
run through the shop?  And any other suggestions you have.

I was an internal auditor for one of the "big three" air lines.  When I =
asked questions, I expected answers, they (supervisors, managers, =
directors or V.P.s) could answer my questions to my satisfaction or they =
would answer to higher management or they could possible be looking for =
another job.  The ABANA board members were elected by the membership and =
the members can unelect them the next time they come up for election if =
they can not  provide the minutes and answer questions.  The ABANA board =
is one the reasons I am an ex-member.  Right, wrong or indifferent, it =
looks as if someone is trying to cover up something. =20
