well I think my air compressor is on its last leg. I got this one free, it leaked on the bottom so he didn't want it. I rolled a piece of steel and welded it up. that had to have been 15 plus years ago. no it leaks towards the heads of the cylinder. if I weld on it again i'm afraid the heats going to just create hairline cracks and leak some more. I JB welded it twice before and just did it again. we will see.

when the time comes i'm thinking of getting one of them pancake type compressors. the guy that had the campground had one and it work for blowing out the waterlines. I need it for occasionally cleaning/blowing stuff off or out and filling tires.

any preference you fellers got????? I see where dewalt has one out????????

We have a small pancake 1 that we used to use to blow out the water lines in the old cabin. Don't remember what kind it is :scratch:, worked fine for that, used it once in a while to pump up tires in the boat shed where we don't have electricity, not used much now & sits out in our other little shed. We have a big commercial stand up 1 in the corner of the garage now with air lines run the length of the garage which we can run some tools off if we want. It's plumbed on the bottom so we can open the valve & get rid of the condensation when we leave for very long

A free, used, 15 year old air compressor is not blowing anymore?  :coffee:

Sounds like she needs to retired or a get a lawyer and sue Trump like everyone else that can't blow anymore!  :confused:
