New *AIR HOSE* Reel installed.. Pics

After shopping around for a few weeks I decided to go with this one. I picked it up at our local farm supply store. It is 50 footer, spring loaded and automatically retracts… I am not sure if I am going to leave it there yet, I liked it there because I could take the hose out the garage door to do work in the drive way easily. I may end up with it between the doors hanging the same way??? It will be like this for a while, let me use it a few times and I may move it? So far I love it

Very Nice!

I always enjoyed the retractable cords in shop class (back in HS).

How did you mount that 2x4 to the ceiling?

Trusses, Or rafters... AKA the wood that holds the roof up.

Well per a friend on another fourm I moved my air/water seperator up to the reel, It seems to work much better than having it right outside the compresser..

Sorry no pic
