Okay, so a year later I have bought a 60 gallon 240V compressor. I just had an electrician wire up a dedicated circuit and a disconnect for it in the garage. Now I need to run some air pipe so I can start using it.

This is a ~400 sq.ft two car garage in a cookie cutter subdivision. I don't know how long I will stay in this house and I already have way too much invested in the garage. As much as I appreciate complete and total overkill I really don't need a lot of air drops or want an elaborate over engineered piping solution. I just need to get good dry air to a primer spray gun and a few other tools for now.

I am going to use 1/2" black iron since Lowes sells it already threaded in various lengths along with all of the fittings . How much pipe do I need to run before the filter and dryer to keep the air dry? Do I need a riser? How would you do this in a small garage?

TIA
