Where do you guys get your manifolds? I’ve been trying to find one that has 1/2" npt inputs and outputs but the best i’ve been able to do so far is 1/2" inputs and 3/8" outputs (which is probably enough i guess), here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Single-Side-Inline-Manifold-2x1-2-NPT-In-5x3-8-NPT-Out-/260536327791?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ca92cde6f

Also, quick question about the hornblasters 8 gallon tank - is it okay to use at 200 psi? I want to upgrade to a regulated setup where I fill to 200 and regulate down to 150.

I guess the bug has bitten me and i’m having way more fun with these than I thought. Time to get rid of the 3 gallon tank and crappy air setup!!

Thanks! :eek:

Those are pretty much exactly like the manifolds when you buy a bracket kit.
McMaster Carr also has tons of them. The biggest they have is 1/2" inlets with 3/8" ports.

I bought an 8.5 gallon tank and 200psi compressors from hornblasters. The tanks are considered 150psi, but they’ll tell you 200psi max working pressure - and they sent me a 235psi safety valve.

thanks - looks like McMaster Carr part 5469K115 will work well for the manifold. And 4959K303 for the regulator.

And sounds good about the tank, i’ll grab a 200 psi switch with it then.
