No experience yet, but I will be looking for this stuff shortly. My garage
is progressing nicely.
Check www.homier.com. They list a reel (Magnum Air?) with a 50' length of
3/8" hose with 1/4" NPT fittings for $39.99. I don't know what quality the
hose is, but it's probably the finest hose China has to offer.
They also list an empty reel for 100' of hose. The reel alone is $9.99 (plus
shipping, void where prohibited :-) Add their 100' Heavy Duty air hose for
$15.99 and you are still in the "cheep" range.
I just placed an order for two of their storage bin racks. $20 for 24
plastic bins, 11" X 3 1/2", on a 3 row, metal rack. Sounds like just the
ticket.
I would avoid electrical tools that are no-brand. $6 for a 3/8" electric
drill is a bit too cheep for my taste! They do have DeWalt factory recon
tools.
