I'm using a 7.5hp, twin cylinder head, 25 gallon horizontal tank, C-Aire that I made three crappy ones out of...connected to twin cylinder desecant style air dryer....
all of it was FREE except the auto electric tank drain....sad part is that the setup is only used maybe once a month...

Yea, I almost went with a 60 gallon, but most said to go with the 80. The 60 isn't bad at all and from what I've learned, would have worked for me as well. In fact, the guy who learned me how to paint uses an IR 60 gallon.
The 60's also have a higher SCFM rate over the 80 gallon IR Compressors @ certain pressures which doesn't hurt.

I was never never worried about how the girls found me. More so, what the hell else are THEY good for? Some can lead to believe that certain things are highly over rated, while others have some sort of special powers. More than just one, -tell yuh that right now....
Crap, right...Uh neva mind....
