Dave seems to me that we have discussed this on another forum atleast a few different times.
Since you REFUSE to use google,
18 cfm@90psi is NOT all that hot, course what do you exspect from a SINGLE STAGE COMPRESSOR.

Heres another idea, try downloading google chrome for your browser, then you will have a google search box in your tool bar. That would be some simple searching

I just need one for sandblasting and running a DA sander. Not gonna run it 24/7 for the next 20 years.

Please stop telling me to use google. If everybody used google then what is the point of having forums period.

think of it this way. If you would use google every other time you want research on a tool, you might just get better results from us. But when you refuse to use google and keep making threads on here you get less and less replies. HMMMMMM think maybe theres other people that are getting tiried of your tool purchases?

like we have discussed a thousand times before on other forums, if you want to run a da sander and a sand blaster they require alot of air.

Sand blaster should have around 30 cfm, anything less then that and it will take forever to get even small parts done.

Now go price a ******* 30 cfm dual stage compressor

Discussed on other forums? He's had at least one discussion about compressors here. Dave, go back and search through your older threads, you will find all the answers.
