Hi Kevin,
  Your compressor is very nice.  I am fascinated by your crank.  I hope I am

piston rods to the crank.  The 2 halfs of your compressor look as though they
can run independently of one another.  Is this true, or are they some how
mechanicaly connected?  Thank you for sharing it.

Regards, Paul
