I just bought a sandblasting cabinet...one of the Chinese knock offs so I need to make sure I don't get lead poisoning.....

Anyway, I have a good Speedaire 3 hp compressor, 230 volt, 7.6 cfm at 100psi....and it is not enough for continuous use.

I am thinking of adding an inexpensive compressor, maybe even one of the little Home Despot ones and putting it in parallel to the Speedaire. Idea is to get another3 or 4 cfm plus have a smaller system to keep my air system filled without firing up the big boy....

Also watch your hose lengths and sizes, you can take a lot of air delivery out of the system with long hoses and too many fittings.....
