Homemade silent air compressor
Hello to all,
I must admit that I have a passion for silent air compressors, simply because you can use them anytime you want without disturbing your neighbors! I built my first compressor 11 years ago using a truck’s brake air tank. Until today I've made 5 silent compressors and I have a 6th one under construction (unknown when it will be finished).
The following video shows the construction of the 5th compressor I’ve made that is actually my first serious built when I started my YouTube channel 6 years ago.
I don’t want to tire you with pictures here (except the necessary ones) because the whole video is actually a slide show with all the info about the built; at the end of the video you will see some photos from the other 4 compressors, but since the time of the video is short I will put these pictures below so you take closer look. I would like to show you more from my previous builds but unfortunately I have only these pictures.

These are the previous 4 compressors I've made.

I have also put one more video showing the basic maintenance of the compressor as well as the replacement of a defective part (non-return valve). I hope that this video will show you a better view of the compressor.
