That TC-196 compressor you said you have doesn't look too bad for a small, compact, lightweight compressor. I like that it only weighs 16 lbs, hell of a lot lighter than 52 lbs! 1/3 hp and 1.2 CFM @ 60 PSI make it more powerful than the Smart Jet. It has a .92 gallon holding tank, unlike the the Smart Jet. Plus the noise level is only 59 dB!

Now you've made my decision even harder after throwing that one into the mix! Thanks Tony.. lol

If I get the big MAC700, I'd want to get a water separator from either TCP or Amazon, not a third party like the one you suggested above (would like to avoid an extra shipping charge just for the trap). This one should work:



Any advantage to having the trap vertical instead of in a horizontal orientation? The pictured trap would be horizontal when mounted to the MAC700, unlike the vertical orientation of the traps on the TC-196 or Smart Jets.

And of course a paint mask for safety:



LOL I could even wear this to the battlefield in the spring, so my nose doesn't start running from the weeds & allergies like it did last April.. Get a flame thrower to strap on my back and I'd be all set!
