rain -> cleanup

It has been pouring the last two days so I can't get out to the Mustang.  Forced inside I changed the leaking couplings on my hard air lines.  I had these on there:
Which I advise against.  They seemed reasonable at the time; This type works on hot water heaters, and natural gas.  They either stink for compressed air or are really sensitive to a little misalignment.
I put on compression fittings today:
No more leaks!  I shut the valve to the tank and the line held pressure for the rest of the afternoon.  Still pouring outside, so I moved more house tools to the basement and organized tools and parts.  Still could do more, but much better than it was.  I did the always regrettable rearranging the tool box drawers.  So much for ever finding anything again.
