Default oba, and regulator panel

alright well the past few days,i got most of by oba set up in. i still need to wire the pressure switch and a few other small things like paint the panel i made to hold the gauges but it seems to work pretty well, at airs up my tires in about a minute and a half so its not too bad. i also need to set up a oilier for the intake on the compressor.

Nice job! Looks like it was a big job making all that. Do you have a fuel cell? Something seems to be missing. lol I like the fuel door fitting.

Its pretty much my brother and me trying to learn as we go.

As far as my fab skills, probably doesn't help that the only welder i have access to is flux core. Not the easiest to learn on but its better than nothing.
