I don't know what this thing was supposed to come with, but all there is, is a big hole to thread in some pipe or something. Does anyone have photos of they're setup they can post so I can figure out how to get the air flowing and the grinder grindin?!

There should be a safety valve on the pressure switch. If you're in a hurry and not ready to do some plumbing, then attach a shutoff valve on the tank then connect some rubber air hose (biggest diameter you can get) to it. On the other end of the hose (25' -50') connect a filter/regulator unit. You need to screw this to the wall. Put a male quick release on it. From there hook up your air hose to your air tools. It's best to have the filter (water trap) a good distance from the tank so the air cools and the water condenses out. Putting it right at the tank doesn't work. Otherwise it will get water in your tools and not good on them. You can get an oiler on your filter/reg unit or put an oiler right at your air tool. Don't use an oiler on air going to a spray gun, or use a hose where oil was put through it. A permanent setup you can plumb copper or steel pipe (1").
