Need to find out before buying a suitable compressor (will a double or quad airbrush silent type work?)

About spindle cooling.
Do any of you run a pc cpu cooling type radiator/pump on the z assembly?

I use something like this on the back of the gantry with less that 1 ltr of water. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/80mm...ceBeautifyAB=0

but you can get one with a little bigger and fit a 120mm fan.

Re the VFD 2.2Kw is at the mains side so at the motor side rough figures prb. about 4A per phase ish.

re the 4mm tube I find that more than enough flow. I have it at about 8 bar and regulate it down on the gantry.
