Teaching the students real world skills…

We built a custom chassis and re-configured a belt drive for this compressor. Removed the old destroyed engine and repaired the busted gaurd that they no longer make. Completing some odds and ends and added a nsepeerate stack filter as well as building a custom drive gaurd. Once the plumbing is complete we will have an awesome project in the books.

So we did a thing… (18 months in the making)
