Re: I want to build a shop compressor

Thanks everyone. I found a killer deal on a jenny wheelbarrow compressor. These go for about $2,200 new it has two mini five gallon tanks 9hp Honda engine and a Jenny Air compressor pump I believe its a G series which starts and runs at 125psi and is capable of 175 psi if it has a larger capacity tank. Someone swooped in at grabbed the last large capacity tank I was looking at. Do you guys this the Jenny compressor is worth 350?https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/458246605405291/
Im thinking scrap the small tanks and use the Pump and The Honda Engine and I would have a killer unit with even a small 30 gallon tank. A new jenny 30 gallon with this pump produces some good CFM

Re: I want to build a shop compressor

Its worth it, and grab it before a roofer or framer does.  I would go with the largest tank you can get/make.  There's no such thing as too much capacity.  Sandblasting runs on CFM.  If it were a car I'd say it needed twin split 1150 Dominators.

Thanks TKO. I've read that those jenny Pumps are pretty solid. Also I'm planning on buying a electric motor thats rated high enough to properly run the Pump at 220v. But for the time being after I pick up the Compressor I'm planning on servicing both the pump and the Honda engine then transferring them to a larger tank. Thanks for for  everyones 220v information by the way.
