I just bought a Saylor Beall VT-730-80 compressor, tank is dated 1987 should I be concerned with the age of the tank? It looks great from the outside and the previous owner stated he drained it yearly but who knows.
My other question is can I run a small blast cabinet with it? It puts out 11.1 delivered CFM which I think is a little low but I am just an occasional user and mostly do small auto parts, brake drums, bumper brackets and the like. It has a 3 hp. motor and it looks like it could handle a 5hp which according to Bealls web site puts out 17.3 delivered CFM is it worth it to put a 5hp on it?
I got for a couple hundred and it seems to run great so far, any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks, Marty
