Gawd, I feel like Jim here.
Concerning you original question, yes a 5 horse compressor should work fine for just about anything you need to do with it in the average garage. I've run lots of tools off mine and sometimes you have to wait for it to catch up (air files and other assorted sanders) but it puts up enough to do the job. FYI, 125 is about the highest pressure you will see in a consumer type compressor and it's plenty for any air tool. It's the air flow(@90 psi) that you need to check.
