compressor question???
I have a 5hp belt-driven upright air compressor with a 26 gallon tank. It states 5.8cfm@90 psi. It just isn't enough to run my air file and high speed sander, etc. It will run 'em, but I spend more time waiting than working..... I was wondering if getting a larger tank would cure my problem? Does tank size control cfm? I just happen to have an old 100 gallon propane tank that I do not use..has anyone ever tried doing this conversion? I just don't want to put another $800 into a compressor, if I can just modify what I have... Thanks for any help
