Ed,
Just received a new scene shop compressor that will be used for tools in building sets. It is a two stage compressor where the output of one piston enters a second piston. That pipe is finned and passes in front a fan that also passes air through the output heat exchanger. I have been asked several questions about "radiator" on the new compressor.
