Depends on what you want to do with it.
Hint : look up the air consumption for the tools you'd like to run. Keep in
mind that compressors are rated in SCFM (even though the HF web site doesn't
say so) while air tools are almost always rated in just CFM. Divide the
pressure by 15 to get the approximate multiplier between these two numbers.
So, for example, at 90 psi, 1 CFM is 6 SCFM.
You can "get by" with the compressor being smaller than the tool, but you'll
be limited in how long you can run the tool before you have to stop & wait
for the compressor to catch up.
