I have two compressors, a one horse two cylinder Craftsman, and a two horse oilless Craftsman. The two horse is NOISY, and I haven't even fired up the one horse yet, but imagine it would be a little quieter with its belt drive and separate compressor.
I will be getting a plasma cutter soon. I was wondering if I connect the two together if that would handle the requirements of the plasma cutter. In addition, I would like just a little more oomph and reserve for times when I spray paint. Would having two connected compressors have any advantage.
AND, how about if I got a volume tank, and hooked it up with the two compressors? Any advantage gained? Or should I just bite the bullet and go buy the big $600 I-R that I really want? I could sell the two compressors to defray some of the replacement cost, and get a freestanding unit that would take up less space.
Just playing with ideas for in the meantime.
