Will this compressor work for a sandblaster that requires 7-10 cfm at 80 psi?

Is this made in USA? Most seem to be assembled here of overseas parts, my 15 year old one is made entirely here and that's what I want again

Hello,
What size transformer would you recommend to operate the CH VT6271 on a 110v outlet?
I'm concerned about the starting watts when the compressor is refilling.
