Beautiful. Thanks Ed!

Glad to help    Are you looking for something in N scale?

Hmmm . . . I'm wondering if maybe he is looking for the 1:1 scale air dryer to install it on his Buick?

I’d be interested to know if anyone makes an N scale part, or if perhaps a reasonable one could be 3D printed.  The Shapeways one is the best I’ve seen, but it’s HO.  The piping in N scale would be around 0.006” or so wire.

@ednadolski FYI, I spoke with the Shapeways designer of the HO part you linked to- he claims to be able to print them in N Scale and may be willing to add them to his lineup on his website.  Start here, I have let him know that he might have a new customer come calling:
