Default Air compressors

Not sure if you have them down there, but I swear by Quincy 216's. I have been running one at the shop for 20 years with very little maintenance. Liked it so much, I bought another as a backup. The best thing I like about these is that the lubrication is not just splash like the majority of compressors. Rather, these have an actual oil pump and pressure lube. In addition, the unloader works off of oil pressure, so if the level falls a bit, it won't pump, letting you know that it's time to top up. Both of mine are currently for sale as I have closed the shop and am liquidating, but I am sure it would not pay to ship them that far.
