I'm looking for info on what machine, dryer, filter, oiler etc... is
necessary to run sanders, sprayers, vacuum presses, screw guns etc...
Not a lot of multiple users doing continuous run jobs, but it needs to

At a minimum you need a 5HP, 2 stage compressor with at least an 80

240V service and about $1,200 USD will get you started.
