I know I will regret posting this, especially after reading about @Fossil-Hound‘s 60-gallon behemoth, but has anyone tried Harbor Freight’s new ultra-quiet Fortress air compressor? I would only be using it for air abrasive work (probably with a Paasche AECR or similar), not air scribes, so I don’t need gigantic capacity. (Sidebar: I know I would not have the ability to ever use it with scribes in the future, no need to lecture me about that.) Green River fish and Wheeler Range trilobites are the kinds of things I would use it for. I have already built my blast cabinet. I don’t have a lot of room and I really like the idea of it being quiet. The reviews I have read so far make it sound much better than other brands but I’d like feedback from someone who has really used it if possible. Here’s a link to the one I’m looking at: https://www.harborfreight.com/2-gallon-12-hp-135-psi-ultra-quiet-oil-free-professional-air-compressor-64596.html

Just got an email from Harbor Freight about a new compressor they have introduced. It’s only 8 gallons so it might be too small for a scribe, but I think would be okay for an air eraser like the Paasche AECR (as long as you keep it set to 50psi or less). It is oil free but claims to be quieter than other oil free compressors. At $115 on sale it might even be in my price range. Anyone already have one or have thoughts about it?

This is just an FYI in case anyone is interested. I was at Harbor Freight this evening and walked past this blast cabinet on sale. I thought it was a pretty good deal, $114. They also had a free standing one that you didn’t need a table for and could pull a barstool or a tall chair up to on sale, but it was quite a bit more. T
