: You'll want your air compressor to be as far from the 
: blasting cabinet, "air line" wise, as possible to give the 
: compressed air more time to cool and the moisture to condense out.

So then... Would the reverse apply for a water trap?  I'd want it as close
as possible to the compressor output (and as far away from the tool) as
possible? I'm looking for a nice water filter for my compressor... OK
humidity in the summer is pretty brutal for pumping "water" into the air
tools. I saw a filter at Wal-Mart that looked "ok" I guess. It was their
default air tool brand (C-K, G-K or something like that). Looked reasonably
priced though. Wonder if water traps are like everything else... There's
good ones & bad ones and you get what you pay for.  Probably so.
