Default Compressor frustration, help

Spent better part of 4 hours installing an automatic drain on my 60 gallon
vertical tank air compressor. It's a Quincy 6.5 hp dual stage.

Anybody have any bright ideas about how to easily get this compressor to
sit higher off the ground? I'm thinking maybe bolt it to a 3/4" plywood
base and simply cut a, say, 4" diameter circle in the middle of the
plywood. Any better ideas that are quick and easy?

Thanks,

Ivan Vegvary

If the legs have bolt holes in them you could set bolts in head down with
locknuts on each side of the hole. You could jack it level at the same
time.
