The rusty old compressor was presumably used in the Plumas-Eureka mines. It now sits among the historic buildings of Plumas-Eureka State Park, Johnsville, California.
Gunnedah museum has a large shed full of large engines and compressors, I believe this to be one of the latter.
Almost back together and that's the last of the Brunner stuff for awhile. It's been a learning experience!
Here is the intake plenum / filter receiver installed on the compressor head. I said to hell with making a 3-dimensional gasket to seal around the edges, and I just used a bunch of Permatex gasket goop to make it somewhat air-tight. Later, I found out I used the wrong kind - it stays soft forever, so I have to go get the hardening kind and re-do it, so the goop won't get sucked into the compressor valves. That would be A Very Bad Thing.
I really needed to service my Black & Decker compressor and filled it with Kendall Elite 5W50 fully synthetic oil. Good :)
