Advice about Axminster White air tools

I was worried someone would say that. Could someone give me an idea of what sort of capacity I need? These numbers mean nowt to me

Wizer, I think air sanders need about 16 cfm. Have a read of Scrit's post here as he explains what's required from a compressor for tools that need continuous air.

I bought a small compressor (performance power brand) and brad nailer kit fron B&Q about 7 years ago for £99. they are still going strong and so are 2 others that I know of, great for portability and pinning no use for spraying at all and if I connect it to my Dewalt framing nailer I can fire 3 nails before it refills
