OK, it looks like I am FINALLY going to pick up a good compressor for my home shop. I've picked you guy's brains quite a lot and have narrowed down my choice to two very similar units. The first unit seems to be the one I want. 80 gal capacity and a 650 RPM pump, but is a single stage.
What are your thoughts? This is for a home hobbyist, I do want to sand blast and paint every so often. 17-19 CFM, I know is on the low side from some of your recommendations, but it should be OK for low volume use right?
