   Air-compressor up on a platform just under the roof (so it takes up no   
   floor-space).   
   --------------------------------   
      
   Compressors may need maintenance access for tightening pulley screws,   
   adjusting the cutoff pressure, draining condensation and changing oil,   
   fixing leaks etc. Mine is on the floor in a corner too near the stove for   
   other use and can be walked out for access to the belt side.   
      
   I got by with a 1/2 HP compressor assembled from new and used components   
   until acquiring a plasma cutter. Then I happened onto a 60 gallon upright   
   ($75) that had tipped over and needed a new pump, which Harbor Freight   
   provided. I don't set it over 100 PSI so I changed the motor pulley to   
   increase pumping speed and confirmed its current draw remained in spec.
