That is true about the new pipe but the working pressure from a air compressor is a fraction of the bursting pressure rated with a new pipe. Then when a pipe is broken there is not shrapnel flying all over the shop. I've have been within 10' of a pipe break on three occasions and all it did was make a lot of noise. The pipe could have been glued back together if there was an adhesive that would hold with all of the plastic there. It breaks like a pipe broken from freezing water.

Then the pipe was attached to the column with duct tape or a zip tie. In my own shop I weld a steel plate to an steel elbow and attach that to the column and run PVC from there. I've never had a pipe break in my own shop and some of the pipe dates back to the mid 1980's and some of this pipe has been exposed to the Texas sun for more than a decade.

The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
