Re: [papercreters] Compressor size for leisurly pace? -was- Re: My Foam House

If you have extra tanks chaining them as slurrguy suggests might work
well for you. If you have not worked with air before, you might want to
avoid any complications like additional connectors and components. It
can be very time consuming to get everything well connected and find all
the right adapters.

I use a 60 gal., 220V, 6HP, 11.4CFM from harbor freight that I paid $600
for. Even working alone I use it at what I feel is its maximum. That is
80% on and 20% off. I empty a 200 gallon mixer of papercrete in just a
few hours. If I were to do it again I would probably buy a $1800 unit
with similiar specs that runs on gas and can be mounted sideways in
my truck. The upright electric is great for my project, but it is not
practical to move it outside of my property.
