Hey AGN:
After putting it off all this time, I've come to the realization that I do need a decent compressor. I don't want to buy a $300 Chinese unit off eBay and have to buy/make a bunch of other stuff just to get it to work right while always worrying about if/when it's going to crap out on me. At the same time, I don't want to spend $5,000 for one either . . . so is a $1,500 budget (maybe stretching out to $2,000) enough to get a good quality, reliable compressor? BTW, targeted budget includes everything (filters, cooling, etc.) I need for normal use.
If so, what are the brands/models I should look at in this price range and what are their pros/cons?
Thanks in advance for the info!
