air tools powered by an air compressor, battery powered tools or electric tools powered by a generator?

Hi fellas i have bought a used Craftman air compressor for my mobile auto repair van and now i need to install an inverter to run it but don’t know how many watts will start it up. I was told told starting it up and almost full tank its when uses lots of energy..

Hello all, i am in the process of buying an air compressor to be used for spraying the odd car, shot blasting metal parts ect. can any one suggest which sort to buy, or what spec to get, also if possible any makes/models uk stores only please. alot to ask so thanks alot for any help.

I am buying a house on a 0.25acre lot and I have sprinklers in the front and back. I dont wanna buy an air compressor too small so Id rather someone be wrong high than low. Also if you could explain the process of doing it you would get a best answer right away!!!!

My dad had to wire " 210" up to this twin piston air compressor someone built for him, what does that mean electronically

I am buying a house and need to paint all of the walls and texture the ceiling w/ knockdown. Should I buy an air compressor and the separate accessories, buy a Wagner Paint Crew XTRA, or just do it the old fashioned way with a roller? I want to balance ease of use, speed, and long term usefulness. I have a neighbor who has a air compressor and hopper gun, so I might borrow that, but it won’t help me when it comes to painting.

I have tried paint markers but they run out of paint pretty fast and the design can fade. I also tried acrylic paint but sometimes putting too much can have the paint peel off and the texture is not that great for a hat. I still haven’t tried airbrush because buying an air compressor can be pretty expensive. Any tips or answer that can help me? So I do a mix?

How much would a pawn shop typically pay for a 300 psi air compressor, it says 12 volts dc/10A

My small Company just purchased a ILS 9.7 closed 24" by 36" laser cutter; not a small investment… As such we are looking to any preventative measured to prevent any incidents that would damage the machine.

I have run across Must haves such as an air compressor powered exhaust to prevent fogging the lens and a Spark arrestor.

Any other ideas?

I am preparing to buy an air compressor. I was told that in order to use certain air tools, the CFM (cubic feet per minute) rating on the compressor needed to exceed the cfm or scfm rating of the air tool. Unfortunately, most of the 110v air compressors that I’ve looked at, up to 0, don’t have the cfm output volume that various air tools require (as stated on their packaging). I find it difficult to believe the that I would need to buy an industrial 220v 10hp air compressor to get enough cfm to drive, say a sand blaster.

Anybody know about this? Your help would defintely be appreciated.
