Thinking on getting the Ingersoll Rand from Tractor Supply. 80 gal two stage, 230V single phase, running 5 hp motor, 175 max press., 15.8 CFM @ 90psi., cast iron, thing weighs 600Lps. Should sand blast and all else for me. Cost $999.99. Whatta you all think?

That's the one I really want... 
One thing you can do to shave a little off the price is to send them your e-mail address to get a dollars-off or percent-off coupon.

Why is it that there's seldom time to fix it right the first time, but there's always time to fix it right the second time???
That's not an oil leak
That's SWEAT from all that HORSEPOWER!!

That would be so sweet! Make sure you have enough power supply for it.

Sounds like a great set-up, and Bobby is right, two stage is the key.

Re: This should be big enough
I think you'll be more than happy with the new compressor, I bought the same type of compressor made by kobalt about 6 years ago. Ive got a 100lb pressure pot sand blaster and can use the hole pot of sand and still have pressure when the sand runs out. Ill run out of steam before the compressor runs out of air, Its more than 1 man needs.
