Thinking of buying a thumper max compressor from super centre but wondering if anyone out there has one
And found it good , bad or indifferent .

Thanks for that , I know some of their stuff is dodgy and some ok , my tjm compressor has been a waste of money and want something quicker .

There's quite a few that are similar, DR Air, Ridge Ryder Ultimate to name a couple. Guess it all depends on who's running the specials and when

My tjm compressor looks so similar to a lot of cheaper units , I like the capacity of the new double cylinder thumper and know the single are fairly good .

They are a big pump that will take up a fair bit of room in its case,
I have one but yet to use it, IMO way too big to mount it under the
bonnet, Kallen has mounted his in the rear left qrt panel
A very good bang for your buck compressor

how much better are the doubled ended pumps when compared to the single.??

Im ripping my 3/4hp pump out of the troopy boy can that pump,plus the 6 gallon
alloy air tank,. All good as I have plenty of pumps and tanks to replace them.
Seems my son is going to part out the troopy, sad day indeed for me anyway, I
did over 400k in that bad boy ended up like dads axe 6 handles and 4 heads later, lol
