air compressor
Hello
Well my current air compressor is finally wearing out it is just a 60 gal coleman nothing fancy (single stage) but I got about 13 years out of it. I am wanting to replace it with something and was wondering if you had any suggestions for me. I currently use alot of air tools and my Die grinder alot. I do not use any air sanders but have painted the odd vehicle. I would like to get something a little better then my old one it did have trouble keeping up with the die grinder at times excpecially now that its older. I have about 1000 to spend but would consider a little more or less if it was worth it. I would like one kinda quiet preferably with oil. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

I saw an ad in Tractor Supply for an I/R 5 HP 80 Gallon Verticle for under a thousand. Looked like a good deal to me. Two stage 15 CFM @ 90 PSIG. It isn't a real commercial unit but it should work well for the average homeowner/hobbyist.
