I used to have a blasting cabinet and a nice 80 Gal two-stage compressor and that worked nicely. However, I sold it during a move. It was more than enough for running the cabinet... overkill.
Now, I'm looking at getting another cabinet and smaller, less expensive compressor. My thought is a 60 Gal single stage would probably do the job just fine, but I'm wondering how small you can reasonably go for just doing the occasional part or barrel.
The cabinet specs. are 5-15 CFM @ 90 PSI. I'm thinking 5 CFM would be just annoying, but 8-10 CFM is probably reasonable.
Anyone have experience with a cabinet and a small compressor? Advice?
