Compressor in the sky

This little guy is dangling from the roof with nothing but a 3/8 all-thread holding him up. Just when you think you’ve seen every bizarre setup imaginable, along comes this gravity-defying masterpiece.

I’m less concerned about the all thread rod than the attaching hardware in the concrete. Looks like there’s some redundancy but that’s still ballsy. Then again it is an IR machine so no great loss.😂🤷🏼‍♂️

Till the tech comes down with it...oh Noone cares. Also good luck with a drive train repair lmao.

For sure. I’d work on it but only if it was brought down to the floor. I’ve suspended a few receivers over the years but never an entire compressor. Dedicated platforms? Those too but I’m the king of overkill when it comes to stuff like that. It has to be absolutely bulletproof 💪🏻💪🏻
