OK, now that I've got my air compressor,
what's the group's collective wisdom on the
following:

1.  I prefer to run hard copper pipe with sweated
connections.  I've had mentioned to me to use
refrigeration copper tubing because it's stronger.
I want to run stick copper.  I've looked at "L" and
"M" type copper tubing, one is for running underground and
is twice the cost of the other.  Any suggestions?

2.  Source for hose.  Local warehouse builder store is
around $65/50 ft.  I don't have a Harbor Freight catalog.
Any suggestions?

3.  Since this is a vetical 60 gal unit (just a weee bit
top heavy), I'd planned to secure to concrete floor;
any recommendations?  anti-vibration pads, how to secure
to concrete, etc.

TIA, always look forward to the interesting replys.

Steve
