[Shop-talk] Air Compressor Isolation Pads

[Steve Hammatt, Mount Vernon WA USA]

Here’s what I did a number of years ago (and what I’m planning in 
a couple of months when the new garage/shop is finished).  I went to 
Dick’s Sporting Goods and purchased a couple pair of hockey pucks and 
drilled out a center hole then bolted down the compressor tank thru the 
pucks.  Worked great!  $2/ea vs. $3-$5/ea.  You do the math.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Air Compressor Isolation Pads

I am getting ready to replace my 20 Gallon Portable compressor with a 60 or 80 gallon stationary one.

I see isolation pads 4" square with 1/2" thickness in basically two flavors, solid Rubber, and rubber sandwiching cork.

What is the lists collective wisdom as to which way to go when bolting it down?
