Hello, Andre.
What are the specs on that DeVilbiss, please? I've been debating my
needs for a compressor and lathe for so long I'm getting tired of
hearing my arguments! I think I know what I want in a lathe, but the
compressor has me stumped. I don't want to buy too little and be
frustrated, but I don't want to spend more than I have to.
I'm leaning toward 10 to 12 SCFM single stage (125 PSI) oil lubed.
Thoughts? Sounds close to what Brian has found.
Thanks,
Donald.
