Re: A tube burst-What happened?

The new compressor isn't prone to overheating - but you do have to pay attention to its duty cycle and not run it all the time. That's true of all compressors though.

I have seen the compressor (run constantly) melt pneumatic tubing. It's a good bet that's what happened.
