Yeah, if I remember right, it wasn't back in the shop when you stopped by.
Also, that is a 'before' photo of me cleaning up the shop. If you back
out to the album, you will see a somewhat cleaner/more organized version
that I'm working for.
Also, the compressor is a new addition. I may be asking for some help
soon on the design changes this new addition allows. It is much larger
than I was planning on getting, but the price was right. It has a 15 HP
motor on it, though the model is designed for a 20 HP motor. With the
larger motor on it, it can deliver 67 CFM @ 175psi. Even with this one on
it, it should be able to deliver in the 50 CMF range.
As far as powering it goes, I have an application in to get 3-phase power
to my shop, and if I can get it installed before Jan 1 08, I can get a
rate that will run me about $15 a month minimum, rather than a $220 a
month minimum, and require a larger draw than I can manage.
Wish me luck guys.
Todd
