New Compressor!!!

[Gumball]

Black Friday special at local farm outlet store - score!!!!!

Sixty gallon that'll serve up 16 cfm at 90 psi...... more than enough to run the blasting cabinet that is next on the list.

The beast.

Nice, but that sucker would take up 25% of my shop.
Should do the trick for sure and then some.

Wow. I wanted one of those, but it was out of my budget. Maybe next decade.

Wee bit more bad *** than a little oil-less job

Nice!!
I've been running a V-twin 80gal for about 10 years now. Love it. Similar specs... 15+cfm@90psi all day long. A couple of things to consider...
- When I rebuilt-remodeled the "40 Watt Garage", I took the compressor in mind, and built the end/corner of the main bench with the machine in mind. This corner was a "catch-all" for crap. I measured the footprint of the compressor, and have 4x4 posts/legs under the benchtop in these spots. The compressor is on the bench (!), sitting on 1" cork vibration pads, lag-bolted through the benchtop into the legs/posts. (Running, I can have a glass of water 5' away without a ripple... OK, a bottle of beer :p)
- The other thing is routing the air intake(s) up out of the workspace into the attic. Relocate the intake filters up there. It cuts down on the noise by 50%+. No more LOUD "whumpawhumpawhumpa" in the shop!

Just remember to have a flexible pressure line/union from the compressor to any "hard pipe" lines in the shop!
