If you find a good solution, please let me know. I bring a tractor PTO
compressor out to the field every day. I could reduce the tractor RPM
(save fuel) if such an accumulator could be designed.

I've thought of adding a couple old 100 lb. LP bottles but don't want
to wait for the whole system to build pressure before starting. The
shears need 100 psi to work so you can't start until almost to cutout
pressure.

With air compressors..there is going to be wait time..unless you
manage to come up with a screw compressor.....and then there will be
reserve fill time. Fact of life.
