[QUOTE="grcthird, post: 638439, member: 1181"] Buddy of mine had this one for sale when I setup my shop, no idea how many gallons, 80 maybe, Ingersoll dual stage pump and 5hp 220v motor. I had to plumb it correctly, add in a check valve, and blow off valve, had to put a smaller pulley on the motor so it wouldn't pull so many amps, build a guard around the belt, and wire it up. Been running strong for over a year and a half. It really surprised me how quiet mine is, literally 1/3 of the noise of the T25s we had at the last shop I worked at. The T25 and T30 are great compressors, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy one knowing how bad we treated the those 2 where I used to work. I wired mine up using a contactor, power comes from the panel to the contactor then to the motor. The pressure switch energizes the contactor to turn it on, I have that wired to a light switch inside to turn it off and on. I wish I would have put the air valve inside the building as well but didn't think about it at the time. The rest of the shop is plumbed using the maxair 3/4 air line from northern tool, stupid cheap and easy to do. I have less than $600 in my compressor, air lines, and 2 hose reels. thumb.gif [URL=http://s1011.photobucket.com/user/grcthird/media/20170117_142025_zpsriu7wvge.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af234/grcthird/20170117_142025_zpsriu7wvge.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1011.photobucket.com/user/grcthird/media/20170117_142114_zpsl56ylmmb.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af234/grcthird/20170117_142114_zpsl56ylmmb.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s1011.photobucket.com/user/grcthird/media/20170117_142124_zpshzgvmsf2.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/af234/grcthird/20170117_142124_zpshzgvmsf2.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
