I've been thinking about this, since I have one good 2 HP already. I
don't see why you could not simply create (out of iron or copper pipe) a
manifold that has an inlet from each compressor and an outlet (with a
regulator) for your sandblaster or whatever. You could install a shutoff
valve on one compressor so you used just one for small jobs, and crank
both up when sandblasting.
Can anyone think why this would not work?
