Portable Air Compressor Made From Old Ford Automotive Air Conditioning Compressor And Parts From A Bicycle
 |
I got the compressor at a junk yard for $5 and bought a 3-hp. Briggs & Stratton gas engine at a yard sale for $7.50. Air is stored in the square tubing that makes up the frame of the cart. I installed a safety pop-off valve off an old hot water heater. There's a front bicycle wheel on front and a pair of small wagon wheels underneath. I put bicycle handlebars on the back side for wheeling it around. (Joeseph Brown, P.O. Box 316, Myton, Utah 84052)
