Air Compressor Build
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ส.ค. 2024
- Restoring and converting an old air compressor from petrol to electric in my machine shop. Cleaning what's remaining from the air compressor with pressure washer and brake cleaner, priming and painting the 150 liter pressure tank. Finding a suitable electric motor off the shelf which needs an overhaul and refurbishment too. Getting new pressure gauges and automatic pressure switches mounted, also pressure regulator. Fabricating and MIG welding axles and a removable handle. Mounting wheels to make it movable in the machine shop.

Hi Donn you had become the quiet man, I love to hear you talk. Love your project, thank you for sharing your amazing story. God bless you and your family
А ПУСКАТЕЛЬ со Знаком Качества СССР! Верной дорогой идете товарищ! )
I like those reconditioned tools, always saving the oldies for the future, way good for you Donn !!

Donn build a sand blaster!
Those parts would clean up like new and much easier. I use my sand blaster to clean up everything. It’s a bit persnickety in its running but the out come is much better than by hand or wire brush!
OH !!!! I did not realize the air compressor was for a sand blaster!!!!
Great work!
Great build. In the future you could always build two of the wheels on a pivot bar with handle attached to that. Make it easier to steer round corners 😊
Well it looks as if you haven't lost your touch doing fabrication work Donn! GOOD SHOW!!!! Can't wait to see the shop in full swing soon!!!!!
Apple llll
Great job Donn this will be a awesome new addition to the shop or just the entire HOMESTEAD thumbs up my friend
hahahahah the hotpocket and tea. Love it. Keep up the grade A quality work my friend. Cheers!
Donn very good restoration on the compressor , but i always warn people about wiring , you see the wiring coming out of the motor have to be renew too because the age of the motor , please make sure you pay attention to details take the time it go to be safer for your life and as well when soldering wire together first tide them together by twisting them then soldering and shrinking the plastic sleeves you have put in before this process, Hope you will accept these infos without been upset ,you are a brilliant metal worker , regards Robert in Australia
Great job mate, look sweet. Thanks for sharing.
Really enjoyed this build. Now you have an adequate compressor...! Nice work 🙂
Nice job on the well needed addition to the shop!!
That's a cool rebuild. That green pops against the orange. Damn nice..👍
Lo
I was getting worried but finally video from DonnDIY!
Nice restauration. This is so much better then buying a new one. And in the end you can be proud of what you made! Well done!
No it's a terrible idea, you should never restore or diy fix a compressor. If you do it regardless then at the very least store it outside away from any people and inside a blast proof shed or something.
That's a clean workshop, great job man 👍
Amazing final product. It came just PERFECT.

I am missing the evolution 355 saw :) love to se more off that 😍 love your video’s
Outstanding job!
Freaking awesome dude...wish i had your knowledge...ill be following your channel from know on. Congrats on your new (old) compressor.
Looks like some serious aftercoolers on there !
Nice build. 🤪 Now all it needs is castering wheels at the handle end! 😎
Your a man of many talents. This was an awesome rebuild. Love your videos. When they pop up I have to watch immediately.
My chest hurt when you painted over the tank. I wish you had used a clear coat and kept the patina... It looked so cool after you cleaned it all up..
Beautiful Baby !
Now drain the air tank every day!
Change the air filter once a month!
Change the oil twice a year!
It will last 20 years
Well done , excellent job .
Great job! It's awesome!
I Love that color scheme ,😍!!!!! Plus it's probable good for you 😁!!!!!
Thank you for sharing, good work have a nice day
Nice Job again! Happy Mid Summer Party! 🇫🇮
Very nice rebuild!
Btw, shop is impressive!!!!
Looks like a beast and hard to move around.. Should have some good fun with it in the future though!
Nice work Don, I like it!
You really have to get a drill press! Great video.
Deadly as usual. Hope you do a intro/review on that welder 👍
Good job!
Outstanding!
Love your work. Very nice.
good job donn well done mate
You COULD say, that the recommissioned electric motor is a nice example of
*removes sunglasses*
green energy.
Nice Job!!!
I bet you don’t hear “Why are you saving that junk for” too often anymore.
Great save on the compressor.
Using saved up junk. Not deliberately saving up junk anymore though. I have it too much already. 😄
What great question
great job!!
Nice to see a three phase compressor, cool color choices as well, fantastic build.
Very good video. Thanks.
Nice job!
Job well done Cheers!
nice job it looks better than new. I thought you would put a turntable wheels on the front somewhat like a wagon . Cool rework i'm sure it much easier to move.
Thanks for your technical sharing.
Awsome job dude .
love it to see youre video's , i am buidling a sawmill right now
Nice fix , Iam trying to fix one myself ! Thanks TANK
Nice and good work.
Nice resurrection but you should consider putting a swivel castor wheel on the end with handle. Make it much easier to move about. Trust me I know!
Atso
Good job.🙌
Nicely done.
Great work ,love your channel
Great fabrication...... old garden hose, is great for shielding wires..
Your shop is too clean, if I did this, half the tools I own, would be scattered from one end of the shop, to the other. I imagine I'm not alone, in this observation..
Perfect job.😊 good luck brother's

Awesome work 👍🏼 and great job on the video. One suggestion though, you might want to consider wearing long sleeves if you weld much and want to avoid skin cancer.
Impressive 😁
Excelent!!!
Donn is a Antique Mechanic, I can see now that what ever the Swiss make it runs forever.
Definitely not swiss...that pump is 100% from italy...and the motor looks like an old weg. I dont think there swiss either
Ghsj
muy buena restauración de ese compresor te felicito buen trabajo
Keep up the good work and videos.
Very good construction, and it's amazing to see 3 phase being used in a DIY video! Nice work
Vacum cleanup included . Nice .
Awesome restore.
You are doing great work
Thanks!
@@DonnDIY welcome
Nice video. I enjoyed seeing such a nice old machine placed back in service.

Awsome!
Great well organised rebuild. One tiny comment, old motor lead out wires cannot be trusted. If you can't get into the motor to replace them then slide sleeving over the old wires as far as they will go.
Enjoyed seeing reuse of old machinery... You are well talented...keep doing it !!!
Very Nice... Congrats
very good job!!!
Finally some one that cleans stuff before working on it...
Very nice, if only we all had 3 phase power. Easier option is to stick with a petrol setup and have good ventilation or have compressor outside.
Here in Europe it's quite common to have 3 phase.👍
Fantastic! Great job!

right. I admire this guy
Well done. 👍👍👍
Nice work
Good job 💪
Nice!
Great job! Remember to cover the wires from the control box to the motor!
Nice job, as always!
Now you have to build a proper wood stove with secondary burn for the shop!
And a new chimney.
@@exwldr6945 with a back boiler so as to get a supply of hot water....
Great Job! Looks and sounds awesome. I bet that will last for a very long time. (The Motor should be Black. ;-) ) Oh, Ya!! That will definitely run a sand blaster!
Gran video...muy entretenido
Dude so cool good job
Thanks!
Hey Donn, way to go on the restoring of the compressor. That will surly come in handy around the shop and property. Excellent work on the whole job. Keep your eye’s open for a couple casters 😉, it will make getting around easier. Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy your videos.
Ottimo lavoro e ottimo video come sempre.
Hai veramente un'ottima competenza in molti campi.
Io però avrei montato le ruote anteriori su una barra con un cuscinetto al centro per renderla sterzante, e con un piccolo timone snodato in modo da poterlo muovere più agevolmente, ma è solo una mia opinione personale.
Guardare i tuoi video è sempre tempo speso bene.
Complimenti.
Great videography man!..love the close ups and narrations...great job, keep it up!
Nice restoration frends
You made this video fun to watch, may be even better than Andrew Camarata. You get it!
Nice job
well done Donn 👍. You are great. Every video is a must for a do-it-yourself fan.
Warm regards from Upper Franconia.
Sweet!
man, I haven't seen a ratchet like that in years. Cool channel and love the camera quality.
Good job
Top job.
You are exceptional
Nice. subbed 👍
