best compressor ever. got it from a condo building i do alot of work for free of charge, just had to lug it down 23 stories.

Yea I see it but at 200 for shipping....kinda of a buzz kill. So is 10 SCFM at 90psi what I need to run a DA and descent spray gun?

fack really? I was really hoping for it to be there when I got a house.

Looks like the husky is no longer available at HD. Any other comparable air compressors at that price point? I'd like to be able to pick it up in store to avoid the hit on shipping.

John, it is a lot easier to pipe the inlet outside than crane the entire compressor into the attic.

Easier? All I had to do was push a button. I didn't want the compressor outside banging away for the neighbors.

Has anyone seen the wall mount compressor from Lowes. it has the option for an aux tank that is also wall mounted. For basic stuff or if it was used to blow off work spaces like I plan it may be a good deal.

400 for that big husky is apealling.

Mine was great the whole 4 years it ran daily at my shop, and the new oner has over a year on it.

I did twice yearly oil changes, the thing was terrific the whole time.

I sold it for $300. I miss it!

I think Imma be picking up that Husky one soon. The smaller one that I was going to pick up for travel (ie to the track) I didn't get :(

If I had enough money I would buy this. A true 5 hp rotary screw you prob couldn't hear running if it had an enclosure.

Yeah but whos going to spend 3-5k on a home shop Compressor. I too would love to have a screw compressor but they are just too much money

I forgot about Kellogg. Thats a good pump too.

If this thread doesn't make you want to get a big compressor, I don't know what does. (You may have to register to see pics, but it's a good forum to be on anyways)

If he is buying a home depot special, the dryer and regular will be more expensive than the compressor.
