setting up a shop air system

Allen Hopps of Stiltbeast Studios walks through the installation of a complete shop air system built around a Harbor Freight Fortress ultra-quiet compressor. The setup includes a moisture trap, desiccant air dryer with oil removal filter, and a pressure regulator to deliver clean, dry, regulated air to the workspace. All components sourced from Harbor Freight make this an accessible and budget-conscious solution for haunt builders and prop makers. The quiet compressor is highlighted as a practical choice for shop environments where noise is a concern.
