I like it!! I use those pancake compressors all the time on jobs, I hate hearing them run so I try to stick it as far away as possible- even if I need 150' of hose!!
You could sound proof the cabinet and just drill holes for the cord and hose and sell that setup!!
Thanks Gunny, only problem i see is they throw off quite a bit of heat to fully enclose.

Fixing a place to keep the tools all together is a great idea.

That's true.
I bought a 25 gal stand up compressor for my shop. Actually put a small addition on just to put it behind a closed door so I dont have to hear it. Also got my dust collector in as well giving me more square footage.
Yep i hear ya, finding places for this stuff is a issue.
I need a bigger shop.

Nice job! Looks like you could keep it in the kitchen now!
I hate that noise too. I have a 27 gallon one in my garage. I purposely got a belt drive one cause it was quiet. Well......more quiet.
"Oh bother", said Pooh, as he chambered another round.
Thanks buddy, yea i have about a 80 gallon in the shop that`s noisy too and also takes forever to fill up.
This little one will air up faster.
Tuckered out now so sittin back with a rum and listening to Merl Haggard.

Hahaha well that's a good afternoon! I'm having a coffee cause I just got up.
Had another buddy get hit last week. He is an MC guy but a good guy. Thought he was gonna lose a leg but they saved it. Broke both arms and a lot of other problems.
Man! It's like combat this year.

Love that Merl, good stuff.

I was really curious when I saw the title. That is super handy. I've got a 5hp two-stage Ingersol-Rand and my brain was just racing trying to figure out how someone would build a cabinet for it. Your solution is perfect though. I've got a Hankison air dryer attached to mine so I would have to build an entire armoire for it. Plus, I've got it lag bolted into the garage floor ... so not as handy.
... I love poetry, long walks on the beach, and poking dead things with a stick.
Thanks fellers, it will be handy for what bought the compressor for, portability.
