I need a new compressor for pressure casting. I know what I want but I need the minimum size I can get away with. What are people using? |

I wish i could just use my Iwata but it wouldn't keep up. I need something with a tiny footprint. Unfortunately Sears won't warranty air compressors. |

Uh Oh, if you own property you should shop larger tanks sizes and consider acquiring some air tools. Paint gun, nail gun, pressure washer... just a few of the game changers that await. |

A pancake compressor is what I'm looking at. I don't own any property and had a big compressor I sold to move here. I wish I had a bunch of air tools. That would be nice. I think I decided on a CH pancake compressor. I just need to find room for it. |

Don't forget to scour your local craig's list for freebies. Bulky gear like that will pass thru hands freely. |
