Wanting to size a portable air compressor. How many cfm’s do I need for max thickness?

The specifications say a minimum 0f 1.6 CFM. I would go as large as you could afford.

This current third generation, does it have the power cord issue resolved yet ?

Mine has had no issues of any sort .

Are the new units going back to the 220 cord with a 110 adaptor?

I bought one in May and returned it because it was 110v with a 220v adaptor. I contacted them and they appeared to say, in broken English, that more 2nd gen would be available in June, which I assume will be the preferred power cord configuration. Still waiting...........

Gatilho ruim.

Maquina corta ate bem ,mas precisa de alguns ajustes. Gatilho muito cansativo para segurar por muito tempo,tem uma trava de segurança q vc pode eliminar,nao serve pra nada alem de atrapalhar e causar caimbras nos dedos . As pontas desgastam muito rápido se vc tentar usar sem o guia ,e tem locais q vc tem q tirar o guia para cortar.
