Mark, I've been looking at the compressors from Ingersoll-Rand. They make some nice units in the $1,000 range. I'm not sure who sells them in your area, but here's a couple of vendors that carry them so you can see what models are available. The one I've been looking at is 17 cfm with an 80 gallon tank for $999. www.mytscstore.com www.northerntool.com Todd ----- Original Message ----- From: mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Monday, March 13, 2006 11:00 am Subject: Overwhelmed, geez! > To top it off the tank on my air compressor has rusted out after > 18 years, geez, they just don't build them like they used to!
