Purchased a Makita MAC2400 air compressor on amazon and mounted it to a dolly with a hose reel setup.
On a side note, I laughed when I first viewed this video because I sounded like Ray Romano for some reason.

I have a reel that has been sitting for a couple years since I couldn't decided where to put it. I need the compressor to live under a shelf next my shopvac, so I think I'm going to build a sort of custom furniture dolly with the reel mounted on it next to the Makita. This gave me some great inspiration and possible closure to my reel dilemma. :) I bought my MAC2400 In Jan 2005 and it has been a solid little guy. Thanks for sharing and great build!

Slick setup. I opted for the Mac5200 over this model for to have the build in wheels/dolly and a little more power out of the unit as well. But this is the way to go for this unit. Great job.

Right, same exact model and everything. That's a rarity these days. Usually, manufacturers release new junk compressors every 3-4 years, which makes replacement parts hard to find. They expect you to just throw it away and buy a new one every few years.

Drooling, getting mine in a couple weeks, and have an extra hand truck (pneumatic tires too!) I think I will build up like yours. These Makita compressors are great! Will look nice along with my LXT cordless tools :) Was going to go cheap, but I hate buying a tool twice, so will go for quality. After getting my hands on one at local power tool store, it outshined ALL the rest, with attitude to spare.

Mine was just delivered today. Setup was a cinch. I went downstairs to let my neighbor know I was going to break it in for 20 minutes & then when I went back down to see if the compressor bothered him at all and he says what ? I didn't even think that you turned the thing on yet, lol ! This Makita MAC2400 compressor is the quietest & best one I've owned so far and this is the 3rd one I've owned in the last 30 years. It's a keeper ! :-)

I want to make a base like yours. Questions about the wood base you made: Is the base made out of 3/4" plywood? Are the 2 parallel long pieces 2x4's? The corners 1x1's? Did you glue any of the pieces? Nice job.

Is that hose 3/8 rubber or half inch? Any issues running the impact with it? I just setup my new mac2400 and I love it but the 1/4 hose is a little too constricting (it came as a combo).

You should remove the air from the tank after a long period of time not in use to prolong the life of the compressor. I bought mine in May 2007 use a couple of time i just changed the oil I haven't an issue it work very well after 15 years.

domnic0 The brace spans the entire axle to distribute the weight. The axle is also completely welded to the frame, not just spot welded. That is why I chose to design it that way. There has been no damage what so ever to it.
