I'm using a Sears 6hp/33 gallon single-stage compressor right now, and it's fine for small jobs like motocycle parts.</cr>
What I'd like to know is whether it would be possible to hook up a second identical compressor to my plumbing to increase capacity? My shop is plumbed with one-inch black iron gas pipe. I leave the outflow regulator on the compressor all the way open, since I have individual regulators at each tool drop. I would replace the compressor with a larger one, but the one I have is almost new, and adding a second identical one would be cheaper than getting a bigger one, even if I sold the one I have for most of what it cost me. I'm curious about the pros and cons, since I don't recall ever seeing two compressors attached to a single plumbing system. </cr>
Thanks,</cr>
