Re: Used Parts Build

Little side project.

I'm building a little set up to cool and dry the air.

Obviously I'm not a plumber...



I know the two bottom openings (when I am putting my valves) arent pointed directly down but if I open them under pressure it should clear all the water. I ordered barbed fittings to run rubber lines off each valve and tank drain to outside.

I'm hoping it wont leak too bad. I used plumbers tape and Locktite thread sealant on each fitting.

This is the first time I worked with plumbing/black pipe and I see why people buy expensive air dryers/filters. Trying to keep everything in place and not rotating as you tighten everything is a *****! I think if I need to redo it I am going to clamp it down to 2x4's as I connect each piece.
