My Sears 30gal. oil-less upright won't hold 80psi anymore. So need to find something different. I know many on here have/prefer something starting in the 60 gal. 2stage 5hp 17cfm@90psi range. Although that would be nice, I don't have a cool $1000+ to throw at it.

My current compressor is centrally located in the basement with a hose to the garage. I use it mainly for construction tools but on occasion, use it to sandblast a rim or some odd part over a tarp.

I like the portability of the wheels and the upright saves on space. Is there a good reliable/sizable brand/model to shop for? Ingersol Rand comes to mind.

Also, can I make my current compressor into an inline storage tank? and what would that take?

Thanks
