Build a Giant Air Compressor for under $200 and 250 gal Upgrade P3

I build a Large receiver home air compressor for less that $200. I use a 250 gal propane tank, 16 cfm Swan Air Compressor and a 3 hp electric motor.
This air compressor is for the Langmire System 4 x 8 Crossfire XR Plasma Table, we are setting up.

That is a beautiful compressor. Should be able to pump up a few of your grandkids’ bike tires

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Works great and meets the needs. Thankyou.

[@junkman6261]

This is not a $200 dollar air compressor. This is a homemade air compressor with a $200 belt tensioner. 😂. Nice work, love the build so far.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

You are correct

[@ScoutCrafter]

Some compressors really suffer from belt flap, even the linked belts aren't a cure all. I always liked the multiple belt set-up on some of those problem situations... Three thin belts side by side seem so steady compared to one larger belt. Great stuff Randy!

[@RRINTHESHOP]

For sure John, the pulsation cause most of it. Bigger heave flywheel I think. Thanks.

[@verbonloucks6498]

Just what I need, use half a million dollars worth of equipment for making one 2 thousand dollar shop compressor!

[@Anybody271]

Personally thats exactly how I justify buying new toys that cost more then it would have to just go out and buy whatever it is, I’m planning on making. Plus it keeps us busy and out of the house.

[@bcbloc02]

Some of the finest angle iron in the country! 🙂

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Brian.

[@AmateurRedneckWorkshop]

Neat adjuster there Randy. Thanks for the video.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Harold.

[@JourneymanRandy]

Really nice work on that. You are outdoing yourself again. Good stuff Randy🤠🔩⚙🔧

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks you again Randy.

[@rogermcdonald1607]

Very nice work as always Randy! Your son is really lucky to have a machinist in the family. Nice blueprint as well.👍🇺🇸Roger

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Roger.

[@anonimous2451]

Old School Machinist, finely crafted my good man. Impressive skill set. Well made Blueprint. Auto-CAD? So impressed I subscribed. Kids these days do not want to learn something as fine as a Machinist. They just want the big bucks with no skill sets.
While watching looks like you fractured a metacarpal on the right hand index finger. I did the same thing but probably not the same way. The bones heal and leave a big lump at the fracture point.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thank you. The hand is good.

[@anonimous2451]

@@RRINTHESHOP LOL, obviously so. Just noticed not poking fun or nothing as I broke the same one.

[@BrianEltherington]

Coming along nicely Randy.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Getting there, Thanks Brian.

[@mikenixon9164]

WOw you are as old as that lathe. LOL . Good video.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Oh yeah Mike. Almost as old as you. Thanks.

[@CraigLYoung]

Good afternoon Randy 😊 Good episode 👌

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Mornin Craig. Thanks.

[@AlmostMachining]

Awesome tensioner build Randy!

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Phil.

[@adamstripp39]

Great job 👍. Love me some single point threading

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thank you Adam.

[@19672701]

Coming along great! Thanks for the video!

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Sean.

[@rpsmith]

Nice job! Thanks!

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks for watching!

[@seanfitzgerald4052]

Very nice Thanks.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thank you Sean.

[@JourneymanRandy]

Wow. I just checked out the Langmuir plasma table. That thing looks impressive.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

They look nice and are getting good reviews. Thanks Randy

[@willydoitbettydont9100]

When you use the thread mic, you really should file the tops of the thread and wire brush before you mic it. You were probably getting wrong reading due to the burrs. Just a helpful tip if you did not know. Great idea to put the tensioner, i have an old compressor that was hard to get the belts tight also.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Yep I do that. I usually just edit that part out. Thanks Willy.

[@TrPrecisionMachining]

good job randy

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Thanks Tr.

[@classicstangbrn8964]

I didn't see a water drain, hope you sloped that tank for drainage.

[@RRINTHESHOP]

You should watch P4. thanks.

[@bdugle1]

Beautiful work! One-off parts do take a bit of time, though ($$)

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Oh for sure. Thanks.

[@jerekirkpatrick2092]

Nicely done. Will you show it installed?
Jere

[@RRINTHESHOP]

Final tomorrow. thanks Jere.
