Compressed air dryer

Does anyone have ideas for an airline drier that might work as good or better than an inline type?

You can take copper pipe and loop it with dog legs with drain valves it helps alot.
I run that into my dryer. Auto drain on the compressor helps alot.

I plasma cut and sandblast/powder coat so I need really dry air.

I found a video on making a drier from a water filter vessel. I'll try that since I have one laying around anyway. Thanks for all the ideas!
