I love my compresser all but the price it is a Snap On but it is made by Big Red Air it is a 80 GAL 175 PSI two stage 28.5
CFM with a 7 HP 220 motor i can run a DA or a paint gun and it will start and shut off while im using it. Get the biggest one you can afford it will be worth it in the end.
Thanks how small is to small?

to small it kinda up to you how much do you want to hear it run and how much do you use air tools. i would stick with with at least a 175 psi compresser you can get some nice ones at sears the oiless ones are louder because the bottom of the pistons are open to cool it because there is no oil keep that in mind when you buy one
if you look on tag it should tell you what is recommended for each tool.I would say you need atleast a 60 gal compressor to be safe and have a decent psi. but you can try smaller i wouldn't
Thanks guys any other advice? This is one investment I don
