Ingersoll Rand and DeVilbus are both good compressors but the Quincy tops both brands with cast iron pistons with 4 rings, timkin tapper rollers bearings on the crankshaft with an oil pump top pressure feed criticle parts.like the replacible shell bearing inserts on the connecting rods.
My Quincy came out of an old grain elevator that was being torn down 20 years ago,, best $100.00 I've spent in a long time. From the same fellow who sold me the compressor I also bought a Simplicity Powemax 9020 garden tractor with 3 point hitch with a tiller attached ready to go to work.
No more sail boat or prospecting or scrap for me, I'm going to plant a few acres of winter garlic as a cash crop with maybe some asparagus to sell. In our community we have a lot of retired folks not knowing what to do with themselves so been thinking of the prospect of shared labour for a share of the crop things like corn, peas and beans etc..
My cash crop would be hands off, but two acres is a lot of room for other produce that could be shared.
I'm tired of refinery's getting first count on my metals, it a tough way to run a business from my end always coming up short.
Probably lurk from time to time on the forum.
