     I suggest this link if you are 
building.  http://www.tiptools.com/compressors/piping_diagram.pdf
  a friend of mine used this piping system and got rid of all his moisture 
problems.  Of course he had a decent compressor also, not a Sear oilless 
one like I do, I am going to convert to this and see if I can pump more air 
than water over the next few weeks.  Only other tip I can give...black iron 
pipes, not PVC and not copper, even though I have successfully used both in 
the past, it frowned upon by the experts.
