Yes, I have an open bed with a toolbox in it. I thought about underneath
the toolbox and the fab a cover for it...but the heat and rain worry me. I
get, on the average week, about 10 consistent "squirts" out of the bottle
but then it needs to be warmed up a little bit more to get the last little
bit out of it. (The bottle normally stays around 875-900psi thanks to the
warmer...used to run anywhere from 700-800.)
So how much did it run you for the filling station equipment? (Been curious
about a setup like that for the garage.) ;)

What do you have a open bed ?? I can see where that could be a problem :-)
You run it down to 1/2 # ? I only make 5 runs on mine and then refill it. I
cannot get consistent runs once it has used about 5 to 6 of the 10 lbs. NOS
told me that there is nothing wrong with refilling them from part full so
that is what I do instead of wasting it on non-consistent runs. I fill my
own
so this works out best both performance and cost wise.
