Air Machine compressor

[Eric H]

Does anyone have a compressor for a coin-op air machine?
I have a JE Adams machine that I have rebuilt twice and it lasts about 3 months and then the crank breaks.
i do not want to mess around with this anymore and I want to replace the compressor.
I am willing to buy a complete machine if anyone has one.

This compressor looks the same as the one used in the Doyle "Fresh Impressions" combo vacs. They're very quiet and have been trouble-free. I might try to get one myself as a back-up (The guy has two listed).

It retails for around $500.

Would your setup allow you to just put together a timer box and pull air from the compressor in your workshop? It would cut down on something else to maintain.

Thanks MEP. I owe you one!
The last time I checked ebay they didn't have anything.

Jeff, I have one location that used the shop compressor for the air machine but the location I am having trouble with has the machine about 40' from the building .
