    <br><br>Thank you for your interest in my water system...first off I want to say that it is very similar to how a house is set up...a house is under pressure provided by the city...I plan to use an A/C compressor or just install a 160psi air pump which is oil-less air pump and use a pig air...

    Dodge B-250 conversion in progress

    Very nice work...it looks like you have some cabinet building skills...you should name your van Woody when it's done...also, with the weight of that PP...I was curious why you did not use some sort of shelf mechanism so it would be easy to pull the PP in and out...you can get some low profile...
