Re: pic: 4901 won't run out of air this season. That's for sure.

Harbor Freight has the tank listed at 15 pounds. About the same weight and capacity of 30 clippard tanks.

I'm smiling looking at this photo. We had similar air use issues with our pneumatic elevator in Week 4 because of the way we (mis)read the compressor specs. Our choice was either mount 30 tanks, or retrofit a motorized winch. We went with the winch, but the switch ate up most of Week 5 (and a good chunk of our budget). I hope the "more tanks" choice works well for you!
