My compressor died on me last year. Couldn't do much without it. Cost more to fix than to replace with equal but wanted better than I had. Took me a while to save up for a new one. Shopped around and got a great deal on a larger capacity higher pressure upright compressor and daisy chained my old horizontal compressor tank into the system. Went from 33 gallons at 125 psi to 93 gallons at 150 psi. Makes a world of difference with high consumption air tools like the air grinder and impact gun. The new one is a whole lot quieter too.

See you in a few months. Maybe I will have something drivable by the time Good Guys rolls around.
I haven't checked in to what voltage compressor I can run at my friends shop,,,I'm still waiting to see if this house sells and I can get a few other things straightened out,,, I might wind up moving the project into my brothers shop. We'll wait and see. It's cool that you have your compressor situation sorted out, can't wait to see the progress. See ya in a few.
