That’s really nice Oz!
I installed a hoist this year and it’s amazing just how handy it’s been. I use it way more than I had imagined I would. As a matter of fact, I haven’t even had a garage I could use until this year. It’s really nice to have the room and place to work on things.

Thanks guys. I love the hoist, I use it for A/C units and furnaces also. I have about 6 of those dollies I roll stuff around on and lift into the truck.

Ozz, how much air does one of those tanks hold? Where did you get them and do you think an old outboard fuel tank would serve the same purpose, or maybe an old fire extinguisher bottle?

They are 5# tanks, you could get a 10# also and mount it there. They hold about 1300# of CO2, more volume than dry nitrogen. I use them in my business to blow out drains and coils.
Jeeps and off roaders, rock climbing Jeeps all use a commercially available tank and regulator that is pretty pricy. I make up them and always carry two for sale, mine are about 1/2 the price. But still not cheap. Around $250 for the tank, regulator, and air hoses. I could probably inflate two truck tires completely flat with one small tank. To top off off-road tires that were deflated a little, maybe 10 of them. It costs about $15.00 to fill an empty at any welding supply place.
I can regulate the air pressure from 50# up to 400# if I wanted to.
