right so my compressor has died, no idea why.


got the father in law down next week and ill get him to look at it, but if its dead, id like a new one, to be honest its only ever been used to blow water off my cycles after cleaning, and for the lad to run around with and blow flowers and stuff.

so what's a decent cheap small one???


thanks

I bought one from Machine Mart or Screwfix. Not too sure what it is - but will let you know

I have a SGS compressor, I slightly got the sizing wrong though and bought a 100l one which is pretty big. I've had it for 5 odd years, very reliable, no issues.
The only real downside is the pipes and fitting you get with them, they work fine but feel a bit cheap, saying that, I've been meaning to buy new, better ones but am still using the supplied ones, so they are ok.

I bought a cheap upright because it fits my garage space better, its bloody noisy and the manifold you plug
into is cheap but it does the job.
