hi captain
is the blue item behind the switch panel your air compressor if so does this section also slide out as i'm concerned about your compressor running hot if it stays in there fully enclosed or is that blue item a
water pump???? just curious not criticizing it's a very very neat job and the detail that has gone into it all

Hi Mazcan,
The blue plastic pipe was the original airline but it got too hot and melted! I have since replaced it with a 1/2" stainless steel pipe and it works fine. The pump itself doesn't get too hot, its the airline that gets hot. The stainless steel pipe can handle the heat and helps dissipate it too.
The
water pump is that small white cylindrical item just in front of the compressor. I have since replaced the white pipe after the pump with braided stainless steel that extends about 500mm from the panel and can retract when not in use.
Cheers
Captain
