I did a search on compressors on CD and found this thread http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=129321 easily which had a spreadsheet that gave a lot of useful info that helped us decide on the compressor.

Inspection will be fun, you get to wait around for the compressor to refill the tank.....

Sounds like a neat robot, hopefully we'll see some video soon!
