i bought a used industrial compressor about
10 years ago and i am pleased with it. it
was run continously for 30 years before i
bought it. the owner needed more air. i
called the factory -- they still make replacement
parts. mine was made in 1967. cast iron.
reputible brand (quincey). i would probably
go that route again ... ray harder
