[Shotimes] [OT] Air compressor blowing fuses

[Kevin & Cheryl Airth]

Ron:
 The refrigerated air dryers are great! Very quiet too. You should run a
filter ahead of them but usually the system already has one or more filters
and dyers. I got a super deal on several 10 SCFM models. Plus the dryer
section on these are made from 316 stainless steel. Will never rust out from
the condensation! They sold for over $2K when new! I have the factory
paperwork too. This is just about the correct size for a home shop. Blast
cabinet or car painting or air tools. If anyone is interested drop me a
line. Sorry for the sales pitch but they are a give away price! Well under
$100!!
