I have a old twin tank that would make a good surge tank like this, the motor and pump, died long ago.
At one point I was going try and find a old compressor tank to do this for my little compressor. I just haven’t found one yet.

Nice job on the parts ,Thanks. Nice to not use a hand file and a angle grinder all the time. Here are more pictures of the build. The tanks is up side down in the pictures, that’s because i will put some legs on it.

That’s some thick stuff over there.
Is it aluminum or steel?September 11, 2019 at 8:23 pm #731609I’m working on lifting ears and legs now. My belt grinder came in handy for this.
What a nice set of pieces. Do you use a plasma torch to cut them out? The belt sander is perfect for finishing those; things are coming together in your shop very nicely.

Some more great welding Ivan , I’ve never used or seen these types of set up before , why are there 2 ball valves between the tanks , is it to balance the air pressure ? I know guys at the shop that have used older compressors to do this , but I never even bothered to look into it.

The valves is there mainly for if i want to use only one tank, for small jobs.. i dont need to fill the whole system.

September 12, 2019 at 6:32 am #731624@Rovik ah thanks Ivan , makes sense , didn’t even think about that ,

That is a great idea. When you can choose between using one or both tanks. Look forward seeing it done.
