I have now decided I need a new compressor, I have 2 already, one being a good size v twin, which seems to pump as much oil as air, its truly well worn out, the other being a small silent compressor that now needs a new motor.. I don't intend doing paint, apart from blowing in,..... so...... I need 10cfm plus, mainly for tools, I don't want a pile of unreliable junk, something that will outlast me

Anything made by HPC. With basic maintenance they're pretty much bombproof.

Small hydrovane would be my choice. Wouldnt bother with piston compressors unless it was for occasional garage use to blow up a tyre or somthing.

Id recommend a hydrovane, they're super quiet and have impressive cfm for their size.

 I have this one. Belt drive and seems to run quite quietly and smoothly. Much lower rpm's than my brothers direct drive v so hopefully under less stress and will last longer |
