    I bought one similar to that (a Craftsman Professional 60 gallon) about 2.5 yrs ago for our shop we were planning on building. Well, the shop never got built, and the house/land is now for sale, so I no longer have a place for it. Still on the pallet and everything...

          i didnt bolt mine to the floor(same thing but a campbell). i put rubber feet on it to isolate it from the concrete and it doesnt move at all.

                    I just left my 6/60 Craftsman bolted to the shipping skid(2x4s). Its been there for 10 years and has never moved. And it vibrates like, well you know. That one is a 2 stage right? IR is top notch shit. Congrats.

                      Also while your at it(heard that one b4?) pipe a manifold system in with PVC and quick connects. PVC is cheap and really easy to do and boy will you be glad you did it.

                          going to plumb a whole system in there. i get can get "free" air line quick connect fittings and shit like this from work

                            do yourself a favor and plumb a 90deg bend off the bottom where the drain petcock is, and put in a ball valve. These things really should be drained regularly, and spiders like to live up under there Also, itll prevent you from having a rust-stained floor since you can't get any type of catch pan under it.

                            My 60gallon CH is still on the crate, I wired up a 15' 220v extension cable instead of hard wiring it (220v outlet on the garage wall)
                            I modify stuff
