Not too long at all! I thought your posts were great. Mine was meant as a compliment, not criticism. Keep up the good work. Take a look at the articles here for ideas on style and composition: http://www.cleancomputes.com/Cub/Maintenance%20Tips%20and%20Techniques/index.html

A lot of good suggestions.
another one is to have a seperate set of hoses for painting and use them only to paint. Never use them on your sander, air tools etc.....

I think I would be careful using a water tank as receiver for compressed air, they tend not to be tested to take air, water just leaks as it is not compressable so it doesn't explode and is not expansive.
Air is explosive if it is let go all of a sudden as in a ruptured tank. Steam is worse because it is also expansive when it is let go.
Watch out for water tanks full of air, danger lurking round the bend. Gas bottles are fine, (de-gas outside before use) they are tested to take the required internal pressure.
Good grade copper is fine for pipework it cools the air very well, but perhaps it would be best to braze (bronze welding) the joints, elbows etc rather than compression fittings with olives, not soft solder based on tin.
Look forward tp see the finished glowing cub with a safe and proud owner.

I probably should have been more specific on the water tank. I'm using my old pressure tank from my well it's rated at over 60 PSI and I only run it at about 25- 30 PSI as I'm going for the volume. I only run the airbrush at about 3-5 PSI. The tank has a pressure release valve that releases at 47-50 PSI.
