I just finished my compressor box. It is all made with junk I had lying around, except the bloody expensive glue and the hinges. Here is a photo of the box completed. It is amazing how big it is once in a box.
This shows the inside of the box. The compressor has proper inlet and outlet channels with foam baffles for noise reduction. There is a steady flow through the inlet and outlet channels and if they are blocked, the sound does not decrease that much. There is a steady flow through the channels, so the cooling is sufficient.
It is a 3hp single phase 100 litre 10 bar compressor. I added piping for an optional water cooler, but it is now only a bigger radiator.
