Greg - agreed. I don't want to buy twice. But, I also don't want to buy more than what I need. I'm willing to buy a good product and pay for it. I'm not willing to buy a $5,000 compressor that spits out huge CFM as that doesn't appear to be what I need. I haven't seen a tool that I would use that requires over about 6 CFM at 90 PSI. Most of those also won't run 100% of the time so as to not run into duty cycle problems.

Any experience with Quincy compressors? Seems I can step up CFM without stepping up noise or cost. 12.4 CFM and 50% duty cycle seems like it would cover my needs.....
