I was looking at a Hitachi EC1050 1.5 H.P. compressor kit at Woodworkers Warehouse today. Kit included an 18 Gauge 3/4 x 2″ brad nailer, fittings, and 25′ of hose. That’s all well and good but will it run a framing nailer? The compressor claims air delivery @ 3.5 CFM @ 100 PSI. By the way, the kit price is $298.
