If the original intent had been to use air wrenches I would have gotten a larger capacity system but since I already had this smaller unit, I tried it and it worked fine.
that's what i'm going to do.
ordered a 1/2" IR impact gun. going to try it out on my compressor and see how it works. if it doesn't, then ill get the new compressor.
