A few week's ago i got this compressor from a Sanyo air conditioner and i have been meaning too work on it i bought a Low Pressure Gauge for it today (58psi For safe testing purposes) and i also mounted it in a foot locker i made out of wood. The setup i really like but its not 100% Finished yet Either.
(Yes it works)

Its feet all have thick rubber on them but i put a metal cable around it holding on firmly to the box which could be why i am going to put some runner there too.
