I visited the recommended plumbing supply outfit after work today. Great old-school (family owned since 1954) shop. Picked up some items to mount my air lines. I plan to use brass screws to mount the flanges to the overhead for some nice contrast ....

A little headway on prep for the compressor. This is where the compressor will connect into the air lines...

Picked this up the other day for the shop &quot;library&quot; and of course added wheels to it (Bureau of Mines had it before me)....
