when I started my shop I had a few air problems before spending money on filter systems dryer ect. I buried a 1000 gal tank out back and ran my ait thru it. went from my 120gal compressor tank to the 1000gal then insideto a seperater and filter then in my booth I have a motor gaurd and a sharp filter. no air problems no water no vapor and cool plus I am never in need of any air. I have ran three das all off one compressor, I 10 months not a drop of water in my seperator

wow, 1000gal, that a heck of a reserve. only question i have, if its burried how do you drain it to keep it from rusting out?

Not to mention its got to take forever to fill

if you have an active craigslist in your area, keep an eye out. I picked up a sharpe dry aire membrane system from a shop going out of business. He was desparate and i bought it for $300. No maintenance, and will be an easy resell if I get to that.
