Default compressor

Sounds good

At least with a new unit, you can have confidence safety wise , e.g., the pressure vessel will not blow up and kill you .

I would be interested to know how many litres per hour it uses ?

The downside may be the Chinese ? motor . If the motor dies , you could maybe replace it with a Honda unit .

I had a 100CFM WW2 vintage Ingersol Rand , the lend lease version fitted on the Aust. chasisis with 18" wheels , but the air receiver on it was dodgy and old and likely to explode Mike
