Project Information
Just a simple little cart I made after swapping my Makita MAC2400 twin tank for this California Air horizontal 10 gallon to get more capacity. I decided to go side by side with the air hose reel so I could park it under my counter as well as make it easy to remove the compressor if I need to take it to a job site or drain it. The platform is built from 18mm Baltic Birch plywood, the rear wheels are fixed casters from an old Husky rolling tool cabinet, at the front is a leveling foot from a Kreg router table and the foot operated lifting mechanism is from a set of workbench casters. It rolls smoothly, parks solidly and does not move when pulling the hose out. Also, raising it up brought the handle height high enough that I do not need to bend over making it much easier to move around than lifting the front of the compressor and rolling it on the rear wheels.
