Hi guys;
Need some advice about Air Compressors. I'm looking for something to handle Media Blasting, Painting, Air Tools, Plasma Cutter, in other words a large Air Compressor. I have single phase electric only out here in the country so three phase is definitely out. I figure I will only be able to afford a 80 gallon tank size with a 7.5 HP motor and a two stage pump. Something that will be able to stay running on a 50 amp circuit and have a 100% duty rate.
About the least expensive one I have found is from Harbor Freight, $1,399.00 minus a 20% discount which takes it down to about $1,120.00 plus tax. Plus 2 year warranty cost. Have found another cheap Company , Schulz Mfg. but nothing about them other then they just started popping' up on EBay..
Wondering if anyone here has any insight about what to get or info about either of these I've mentioned? Sure would help. Better yet anybody work where they make these things and can get a great deal for there favorite BROTHER. HA!!
Let me know ASAP since my little two tank 3 HP motor one is on it's last few runs.
Thanks guys, Roger....
