      New Compressor

      Pressure switch went out on my crapsman compressor and didn't want to risk an explosion to work on my car so i went out and upgraded a bit to a new compressor. Havent posted any of my new stuff in a while so i thought i'd just show you all. Need a few more fittings to be able to use it but it sounds good! haha

      80 gallon 2 stage 7 hp motor 12.6 scfm 175 max PSI
      I ended up paying a little over a thousand with water trap, oil, fittings, wiring, tax, and a few other things. Still missing 1 fitting so i couldnt use it tonight but 7 AM tomorrow i should be able to when home depot opens.
      Here is the link to it: http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS...cm_pla=1319015
      the next compressor down only went up to 135 psi, 60 gallon tank, single stage compressor, half the scfm for $450
      and the compressor up from it was the same psi, same tank, but it had a different compressor and it was $1700

      Update: if anyone is looking for a good compressor i would def. recomend this one if your looking for something that wont break the bank to much. It seems like i can run the plasma cutter forever with it haha
