Post by Brady22 » June 8th, 2013, 11:15 am

Hey guys, so I've been looking around for a few months trying to find a 60 gallon compressor tank. I dont want a working one as i plan to make a reverse flow out of it. Anyways im not having any luck finding one, do any of you have any suggestions? Ive already checked the junk yards and Craigs list.

I've had a tank pigeon-holed just down the road for a few months now - If memory serves, it's about 54 inches long and maybe 20 inch diameter? …

The next time I'm over that way I'll check to see what Leonard wants for it (I think he said about $30) and let you know.

Enjoy your vacation!

I do Frank! Its a perfect blend for me because i love to weld, build and cook so i finally found something i can do all three at once. On a side note, you had mentioned a good place to eat some Q at the Ozarks when you were in Kearney. Could you refresh my memory as to where that was. Thanks
