Air Compressor Took A Dive

[Brian Schauder]

So I am shopping for a new one.

Any suggestions?Right now I am thinking of getting an Ingersoll Rand 2475N.Kind of pricey I guess at 1500 beans for something I don't use a whole lot.I give it a once and a while work out with buffers,sanders,and just typical around the shop stuff.

I had a Craftsman 60 gallon,6.5HP.The oil less kind.It spit all the guts all over the shop the other day,but lasted 4 years.

There appears to be quite a few differences between compressors and I'm not sure which ones are the good or the bad?

A neighbor's did that last week, just went for the $600 Rand thou.
Tractor Supply had them on sale.

It's alot guieter then the oil-less that's for sure.

just looked at home desperate (aka depot) they have one that is 80? gallon, 2 stage, 240V, 12.8 or 12.4 cfm @ 90 psi w/ 175psi max... for 900 bucks. 3 year warranty too...

That's the one I'm gonna get when I build my shop here next month
