=====================================================
Brian, the cost today will be $500.00 more, but, the cost in the long term
is far less than the smaller/cheaper compressor, it will not keep up with
blasting needs, it will be over worked, you will lose a lot of your time
waiting for cool down and bleeding the system dry over & over again, not to
mention the water that will be ever present in a overworked system, yes $
500.00 more today, but 10 years down the road "not-so" , taking a 1lb empty
bag to the grocery store to buy 5lbs of groceries is a waste of time also.
