Garbage box score!!!

Tue Sep 06, 2016 9:04 pm

I went to pick up my new-to-me compressor and the dude was going through some old boxes of gear he wanted to get rid of. He showed me a box of some old double hose regulators and said the most wonderful thing in the world..."Ya want them? Take em."

SCORE!

Wow! Nice job! The 50 Fathom appears to have nice paint.

Christmas came a few months early this year.

While I have been fortunate to make a few such scores of my own, I am still suitably jealous of your acquisitions. :D :mrgreen: Mark

Swish!

That Mistral / 50 Fathom combination is the best. The upstream / downstream theory on tank usage, see Eben's thread for details: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=8783


Enjoy!
Too DAAM Many double hoses, It's not a hobby, it's an addiction.
