Appriciate it 👊💯

Thank you! I really appreciate that.

Nice! It's been working out good for me... thank you for watching 👊 💯

Thank you for watching 👊 💯

Interesting, Stacy. Do you have a link or a sketch of this setup? Thanks.

@@kenfen3104 Just put the air dryer and filter between cylinder and tank and not after the tank, so you get dry air in the tank, no water in the tank and system. Greeting from Denmark.

Exactly what I did on my build. I also added an oil feeder to the output for my air tools with a bypass T to separate the lines (dual feeds) for Painting vs tooling. It is so smoothly operatinig I was absolutely impressed ....... I tuned in to have a look at the build and was wondering why folks do not consider taking the HOT AIR and cooling it before ever entering the tank. My Tank has been in service since 1996. 1 New Motor, and after 17 years I sealed the inside of the tank to totally prevent corrosion after having it cleaned out. Was barely surface rust but I wanted it out before sealing. This way is the absolute BEST way to extend the life of you tank and systems. It also extends tool life greatly.

@@anonimous2451 not only this but why is everyone using all those valves , they arent cheap and you could get a better result if you would pipe those all into 1 valve at the bottom , the additional line space would work as dead legs to accumulate more liquid , you could even use clear hose to show when theres a liquid level

@@leegarcia81 Not exactly Lee. Using my system I find most collected waper vapor in the first line, then less on each valve after. I started just cracking the first line during use and have no drainage from the 3rd line set. The valves are insignificant in cost compared to protecting Plasma Tables from water in the line that eats up the tip consumables.

Thank you!

Yeah it's not difficult at all

Thank you for watching 💪💯

Appreciate it 🤝💯

Thank you

Thank you I really appreciate it...yeah it adds up once it's all done...I ended up going with the 3/4"

Jeff DeLuca Thank you

Oh nice! 💯 not sure about using thinner copper lines. I've only used these and so far they're holding up. Thank you for watching 👊💯

Yeah, they're self tapping. I screwed them in slow. It didn't crack the housing. You should be good. Thank you for watching 🤝💯

Thank you 🙏. My system is holding up nicely. I haven't had any moisture make to my paint gun. Nice build! I'm glad my videos have added some value to your build. I have been using Eastwood and High Teck primers but I want to try the Tamco 5310 high build primer. I've read a lot of good reviews on it and also read that it's easy to sand. I'm going to try it on my next project

@@StillStandingGarage Thanks for the quick reply. I'll check out Eastwood a little more. Been watching their videos lately. Kevin seems to provide good info... Gracias Amigo...

@@05glisedan No problem at all 🤝

Thank you 💪💯 I would have to check for you... I'll get back to you

Its from Usaweld.com ...the manifold is needed to remove the majority of the moisture...and it does

It has worked out great for me. I haven't had any issues at all. Yeah, I had to add the desiccant beads in the sight glass. I thought that by filling up the tank they will show through the glass, but that wasn't the case. Thank you for watching 💪💯

Thank you! It last quite a while. I haven't logged hours of use, but I have baked the desiccant beads 3 times already. I will be replacing them with a new batch in the upcoming weeks. I have been using the same beads since the making of this video.

Not yet. I'm sure I'll get tired of baking the desiccant beads and look for another solution. Thank you for watching 🤝💯

Hey Justin, One end of the Green hose swivels. I installed the side that doesn't swivel to the copper line then installed the swivel side to the air compressor.

Nice, that should be a 1/2 inch legacy (flexzilla) lead line? Do you recommend it? I bought a cheap lead line but I figured out the ID is 1/4 inch instead of 3/8. Thanks for the video, if it wasn’t for you I would be even more confused! Please keep up the content, and here is a sub!

Yes, I used the 1/2" Flexzilla hose. I have a link for it in the description of this video. I've been using it for over a year without any issues. I run 150psi through it daily. I'm glad I was able to help. Thank you for watching 👊💯.

This set up is to remove moisture and is only after air has left the compressor. I drain the water from the compressor every day that I use it. Hope that answers your questions.

@@StillStandingGarage yes it does thanks again!

It's 3/4" to 1/2"

It's been holding up great. No leaks. I would recommend 👌

Hey bro I’m about to build this system it looks like you added another pipe the end that connects to the 3 foot going to the dryer system

Here you. This is the one. usaweld.com/collections/htp-america-air-dryers/products/htp-america-max-dry-max-dry-xxl

Hey bro I just ordered everything to make my own system how is the regulator holding up ive seen some bad reviews on it just trying to see if it’s still holding up or what did you replace it with

Yes, this is 3/4" and it's type M copper pipe. The size of the wall is .032" thick. I'm not sure how well other types of piping will hold up.

@@StillStandingGarage ok thx mate

I think I have seen some use the Y fittings instead of 90s... the concept is the same just different design

Here's the link usaweld.com/collections/htp-america-air-dryers/products/htp-america-max-dry-max-dry-xxl

I think im pulling the majority of the moisture out with the water trap... I open the ball valves after about 30 minutes of use and release the water...the air dryer gets the small amount that gets through the copper line

I used M for mine

@@StillStandingGarage thank you sir!!

No problem at all

Thank you 🙏

It's from usaweld.com

Thanks 👊💯

@@StillStandingGarage I saw you tested with 50 psi, what do you normally run. I wanna do the same setup, my compressor runs 175psi, wondering if that's ok?

I run 150psi all the way to the Max Dry dryer system then I step it down to 90psi to my hose... the copper line is rated at 250psi... you should be ok.

@@StillStandingGarage sounds good , thanks bro

No problem

I made the manifold

Look in USAWELD.COM. That's where I got mine. Here's the product # 25310-2.

About 7 ft tall and about 6ft wide

Check it out here: usaweld.com/collections/htp-america-air-dryers/products/htp-america-max-dry-max-dry-xxl

I haven't tried 1/2" before. Bigger is better since it'll hold more air in the lines.

It was at 90psi, but I ended up removing the regulator because it was making a humming sound. Now I only regulate the air before my work hose.

Mine was 3/4"... I used a reducer fitting to step it down to 1/2"

@@StillStandingGarage any reason u decided to go with the 1/2 or can this whole set up be done with the 3/4

It can also be done with 3/4" all the way to the dryer system. After the dryer it steps down to 1/4" NPT. I used 1/2" so the water trap could hold a bit more air.

@@StillStandingGarage u think it would work with 5 ft piping instead of the 7 ft bro ?

Yes, that'll work as long as the overall length of the water trap is 50ft

I've seen others use it. Not sure how long it lasts tho. I've had these copper lines in for about 2 years now and haven't had any issues.

Here you go usaweld.com/collections/htp-america-air-dryers/products/htp-america-max-dry-max-dry-xxl

Thank you 👊... if I remember correctly, it was about 1/8"

Cool. Thanks. As far as that Husky, what would you rate the loudness of the unit? It's a great deal, but I'm working out of my garage, and currently running quiet tech. Your reply is much appreciated

It's pretty loud, I have to shout to have a conversation with someone.

Air dryer is from USAWELD.COM.... The manifold is the water trap before the dryer.

@@StillStandingGarage is the manifold necessary? If so where can I get one that you recommend? I have a 60gal vertical 5hp single stage compressor. 1) Are you calling the inline water trap the Manifold? 2) Also what's the part number on the 1/2 blue handle ball valves? I can not find any non threaded ball valves on Amazon for copper tubing like yours. 3) Do you NOT recommend that air regulator in your inline system now? In your other video looks like you removed the regulator. Is it needed?

I made my own manifold/water trap. You can find the ball valves without thread at Lowe's or Home Depot. The regulator after the compressor isn't totally necessary. I just wanted to control how much air went into my water trap. Everything is working fine without it.

@@StillStandingGarage so what adapter size copper tube did you use between the 1/2 ball valves and the T at the bottom of your manifold? Looks like the adapter slid right into the ball valve for brazing. I know you are using 3/4 tubing but I cannot find anything that slides into the 1/2 ball valve so I can braze it up? Can you help?

I used a 3/4 to 1/2 reducer

They are about 7ft high

@@StillStandingGarage thanks for your reply, is it worth it if i do the system on 1.50m (5ft high)? thank you so much

As long as the total length between your air compress and dryer is 50ft you'll be ok with whatever hight meets your needs.

@@StillStandingGarage thank you very much so if I understood correctly the copper system must be 50 feet wide? does it matter the height? thank you

No problem at all. Not wide, 50ft in length. It doesn't matter which way it's set it up as long as the total length is 50ft.

It's 3/4"

@@StillStandingGarage thanks for the reply, looking forward on making the same build as you.

No problem 👊... I'm glad I was able to help...let me know if you have any questions

Thank you! I got the dryer system from USAWELD.COM. I usually bake the desicant beads once they're saturated. I do it 3 times then replace with new ones.

Thank you! From my research I learned that with time PVC can crack and/or shatter which is why I went with copper

I spent about $140 for all the copper. Some of the copper fittings I bought on Amazon. Links for those are in the description. Yes, that's the price for the dryer system. Home Depot charged $80 to deliver both.

Still Standing Garage thanks brother! You been a huge help!

@@jasonenz4238 You're welcome

Thanks! Yeah it's been consistent after 2 years... That's one less thing to worry about when painting 💯

@@StillStandingGarage awesome video brother

Thanknyiu for watching 🤝💯

3/4" pipe

@@StillStandingGarage thanks

Is it L or M type?

I used type M

@@StillStandingGarage thank you.

I'm in Cali

@@StillStandingGarage nice im from so cal in are you near Victorville

Yeah about 45 minutes away...I'm in Fontana

@@StillStandingGarage thats firme im originally from El Monte but moved to Victorville, i want to set something up like that how much did it cost you overall moreless?

That's what's up! This was about $600 if I remember correctly.

This video is 4 years old. It worked out great!
