get your compressors out for the lads!!

now then,santas gonna bring me a compressor for christmass!!!

but him and mrs santa know nothing about them  8O

so was asking u guys what too go for if anyone has any knowledge on them????

need it to be able to run tools and spraying equipment and be able to hold air for abit so its not running all the time

any help would be appriciated folks

I have this (25l 2hp oil free):



and my little luxury which was a 0.25 litre touch up compliant gravity-fed airgun, which is okay for 1 panel at a time.

PS You need to ask yourself what the highest consumption tool you're ever going to need to use, is. For example, full-size spraygun? Sandblasting (cabinet)? etc All others are pretty benign.

heres mine.
6ltr 1.5hp
also have a gravity fed touch up gun that runs fine off it.
runs my nail gun and impact wrench without too much trouble.

Heres mine - been meaning to get round to selling it too as i hardly ever use it, hence why i have pics of it!



50ltr, 2hp - powers most things i've used it on although it did struggle a bit with the DA sander.

mines the same as above  :wink:

the bigger the better  :wink:

Mine is the bigger version of the one above. 3HP/50LTR Does every thing I need it to!
