I thought of this wen i was roofing. Its a 6 way air manifold machined from solid aluminum i added a steel loop to the end so it can be attached to something so it don't fall of the roof.

I would think a bigger line coming in might be neede if multiple tools will be used at once

I thought about stepping up to a 1/2 air hose but i ran this splitter with 6 shooters on a roof job with no problems.

It's a good idea, but you need to figure out how restrictive it will be to airflow. May want to use a larger feed.

I made almost the same exact thing. I have a 3/4" tundra feed line. It had 4 framers going no problem. The hook is a good idea.

So what size feed line would be ideal. I allwase used a 3/8 but never ran more then 6 roofing guns

And not all of them were fast shooters

I prefer using a main feed line 1/2" with 1/2" fittings to a 10gallon tank that has an air splitter on it. Using a single splitter has caused problems with air. The air pig seems to be a noticeable improvement. Same as stepping upto 1/2" lines and fittings for the main. Using 1/4" from the splitter

Are you what are you doing roofing or framing ? And how many guns

Framing. Generally have 4+ framers going. Not uncommon to have 6-8 guns out. We burn on a good day when we are maxing out the compressor nearly 3 boxes of 4500ct spikes.

Ya that's big time framing. i never ran more then 3 framing guns on one of these.

13500 IN A DAY?

What is something like this worth. And who would bye it.

What's what worth the air pig or the manifold?

I seen a few guys using the dewalt manifold.

You should make your trunk lines with Hi Flow fittings. I use them for my HVLP guns and they flow a TON more air then standard fittings.

The air manifold. I would use legacy air fittings they have some nice hi flow couplers

These are something i would like to build and sell. I'm just trying to find out if its a worth wile project. I found the air manifold to be vary use full on the job but that's just my opinion i would like to know everyone else's. Would you bye one if you seen it at lows. And what would you pay. Thanks for all the info its Ben help full

The one attached to my air tank has 1/2" fittings in and out and 4 1/4". Think it costs like 15-20$. You'd have to beat that lol
