Compressor output
Do any of you mathematical genius' (genii?) know the formula to convert litres/min to cfm. and any comment on if 1350l/m is any good for
spraying cellulose/ blast-cabinet, airtools etc?

Mine too welding and simultaneously setting fire to mdf makes for a headache.

or this is bit better - 1 liter/minute = 0.035 314 666 213 cubic foot/minute
from this site that I use when I'm stuck: http://www.onlineconversion.com/flow_rate_volume.htm

Thanks for that. Looks like I'll be blasting everything that doesn't move in the next few days.

That's some compressor! I presume a trailer based petrol engined unit? Otherwise you'd be created brownouts in your local area...

It says on the pump 1360 1/min I thought the 1 was an L for litres. So don't know what this figure means. It's only a 2000watt motor
though and single phase.

Aargh! Why the hell can't they say rpm then? Only !360 rpm. I think I should skim the head and raise the exhaust port to get it up to 9000rpm.
After all it does look like a two-stroke.
