Might be ok for a few tools and tires but you won't be happy with it in the long run.You need 5hp or bigger.The old saying you get what you pay for.

Like Mike said... a bit small in the long run... Would do well with light use but not enough for blast cabinet or HD sanding... just my thoughts

Looks like I need to just bite the bullet and buy the Quincy I was looking at.

Update on the compressor. I bought the Quincy after talking with my electrician buddy. At 18 CFM, I should have all the air I'll ever need. He only had to put another 220 line in the box and I am ready to go.

Congrats on the new compressor. I know it is not the most fun tool to buy, but it will make using the air tools more enjoyable.

Update time. Finally got the thing wired and plumed. I have a couple drops around the garage now so I don't have to rely on just getting air at the compressor. But now I have another question, what should I use as a inline water filter? I have looked at them, but I wouldn't know a good one from a bad one? Also a regulator at the compressor?

We don't have a water separator on the one in the farm shop, no real need since I don't use it for sandblasting or painting. I do need to drain the tank though. On our old ones at work we plumbed 1/4" copper tubing to a valve we could easily get to so we could keep the tanks drained easily--those crappy valves on the tank are destined to break quickly. We eventually got big enough to get an air drier and rotary compressor.

I don't use a regulator here unless I am in the old shop painting. At work we have the regulator right where the air comes in the shop so we can monitor it if a problem arises without having to go outside to the compressor house. Nothing fancy, just pretty good size--we have about 15 guys on the shop floor. You should be able to get a regulator/water separator combination unit.

I have a 5hp 80 gallon upright made by Emglo. 1987 model. I bought it out of the local classifieds, remember those? 2 stage 4 cylinder pump, 220 single phase. Rated for something like 19 CFM at 175 psi. I did rebuild it a year and a half ago, had a bad valve in one of the heads. Did new rings gaskets and all of the valves. Not quite the same as when I 1st got it but way better than running it when it had the stuck valve.... Still puts out the volume ok, but it seems like recovery was a little faster before the valve issue I had.... Tons better than while that issue was happening. Best$500 I ever spent, rebuild many years later cost me about 1/3 of what I bought it for.

As a backup I have a single stage Emglo with a 5hp Briggs for power.

You should plenty of CFM's with that monster. However, a 5 hp motor, single phase....Yikes! Your electric bill must be astronomical.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
