It also has BSP threads so connecting to it is ... fun.

1.that solenoid
2.harbor freight 5 gallon air tank
3.3 or 2 inch wide metal conduit

and we would also need to use(that we have)
1.compressor
2.normal tubing
3.chassis

and some fittings.

You'd want a dump (ball) valve, an overpressure (Poppit) valve, and a pressure switch to shut off your compressor at a safe pressure.
