on sale at 50% off ($19.99).

I'd recommend against using any inline lubricators. You're just going to
contaminate things, and a lot of tools which require lubrication are

really
picky about what you lubricate them with, so it's better to deal with them
on a item by item basis.

I've got a simple filter/water trap (CH I believe) in my line.



Also, if you air lines are overhead, where ever there is a drop, don't turn
out for the disconnect with an elbow. Put in a tee, and drop a 12 inch
nipple with a draincock. The water that comes down the line, will gather in
the nipple. I would put a filter at each connection.
