I just came to realize that my compressor cant keep up with me, as it starves a lot.
single stage double stage, single, twin piston? what are u guys running. I barely get 4cfm at 90 psi, i need at least 7 or 9 at 90 psi to run a blaster properly, and porper paint guns at 40 psi that require 10 cfm. so, i know nothing that has wheels will help me, and its going to be 220 volts, but just in case if you have something let me know what u are using. I have a 2hp single piston motor, 110volts with 26 gallon tank. This post has been edited by njccmd2002: Jun 22, 2011 - 6:29 PM -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

Good thread - I'm interested too, as I've finally talked my wifey into letting me upgrade the compressor.
Mine, however, doesn't need to be portable. In fact, the less portable; the better.

Uh...big.
I think the green one is like 100-120 gallons, 2 stage (or maybe just two cylinder?), around 5hp motor I think. I never looked at it too hard...I just use it. I know its 220 volt and has its OWN 30 amp breaker. -------------------- |

Cool, that crate actually makes a good stand so it won't vibrate the floor/house as badly. It also gets it up off the floor so accessing the drain valve is easier.

using a da takes a lot of air. I think my garage compressor kept setting the circuit breaker for it loose every 5 mins.
