Hi
I'm no expert but just drawn this up for you, just an idea
Thank you so much, that's brilliant!

That crack/movement looks nasty.This is a photo of the outer garage wall, the area measures just over two metres in length by just over a metre in height

not fracking in your aeria are they![]()
Looks like its already been done the other side at almost a mirror of the gap now.Not the most confidence inspiring is it, just needs re pointing apparently.
that space outside looks ideal for a small lean too
so you can keep the compressor outside!!! (future project if the noise gets too much)
have you looked at the blue plastic push fit from screwfix?
RE. the crack in the brickwork have you had any problems with the drains? its just it looks like the crack lines up with a manhole under the bin?
Yes you will get some pressure drop but not a lot. 15mm pipe work has more than twice the cross sectional area of a 10mm air hose, three and a half times that of an 8mm hose and will be that much less restrictive, you will hardly notice it.Another question regarding a copper pipe set up.
Could a pressure drop occur if the pipework is too long? I've measured up and so far I'm just over 13 meters, compressor is Wolf Dakota 3 h.p. 100 ltr (free air circa 9 CFM)

nice torch I have a couple of them![]()
not worth bothering about goround with some soapy water and a paintbrush if u feel; the need. could be loosing it through the one way valve on tank or through the valves on pump . mine goes for 3 days before re starting due top pressure dropBefore connecting the pneumatic gauges I flushed the system with water to remove any residual flux to limit the chances of oxidization, then dried with compressed air.
On the subject of compressed air, I've pressurized the system to 120 PSi (compressor closes off then) then left for two hours. On returning the I've suffered a 10 PSi drop, meaning there's a LEAK! Should I be concerned about this??
