Default Air Compressor

I am looking to buy new Air compressor. What type and size would you
recommend for a woodworking shop + home improvement and construction
project (involving framing and roofing nailers)?

I am considering HarbourFreight. I have several air tools from it
and
they are OK. Any experience with their air compressors?


HarborFreight! I wouldn't.

As far as a first compressor is concerned, get a portable wheeled unit
with the largest 120VAC motor available that can be connected to a 20A
c'bkr.

If you are in a 220V service area (No 120VAC), then other
considerations come into play.

More info is needed about your planned usage is needed.
