Finally installed new Air Compressor!
Kobalt compressor from Lowe's. 135psi max. The important # on a compressor though is cfm. This one has a max of 10.8cfm @ 90psi. Which means I'll have to run the file sander in short bursts. For a little more $ I could have had the 13.3cfm model. Oh well, live and learn. I had to wire the 240v myself...
.... but it works great. The wheel leaning on the wall is a mint Porsche 944 spare I found in my attic! I'm going to cut the space saver tire off of it and mount the wheel to the wall to serve as a hose hanger.

If you only need a little more added, you could always hook up your old compressor if you have one, or buy one thatll add enough CFM to it to get it where you want so itll keep up with your sander etc. However, sometimes numbers lie...that one may very well keep up with your sander even if the numbers say it shouldnt.
