I have no idea what the cfm output of mine is, but as stated it is important... My compressor is an American Kellog 2-stage compressor on a 60 galoon tank. I've got it set (I think) to kick on at 120 psi and off at about 160 psi......I can run any air tool I have and have quite a few big uns, and my bead blast cabinet (pretty big also, 4'x2.5'x2') and it will cycle on and off, I can't ever remember running anything that required it to run constanly or for me to have to wait on it.........

It also uses a 5 hp motor, motor ratings can be somewhat misleading, but on a compressor this size, 5hp would be the minimum........

My compressor is at least 25 years old, possibly up to 35 years old......I've seen comparable units in the $1200.00 range, smaller compressors on 60 gallon tanks can go for around 1000 bucks and would be fine for a home shop...

Only thing I wish was mine was an upright instead of a horizontal unit...

I missed a deal last month on a similar but upright unit, used, no electric motor, sold for a measly 250 bucks!!!!!!!! got there about 2 hours too late.....shop around and you may find a used unit for a steal, I see them every now and then....

I've bought about 10 over the years, cleaned then up,painted them, maybe changed a fitting or two and double or tripled my money on everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
