something i forgot in previous post (was talking on phone to stupid
person and missed it) the compressor i mentioned in previous post
outputs 11.3 cfm at 90 psi, since all my tools run at 4.3 cfm at 90
psi, both me and my pard can work on the car at the same time. plenty
of umph in a inexpensive package
regards

I justified my original compressor/nail gun on the savings from a
Kitchen cabinet rebuild. I then added wrenches, ratchets, sand blaster,
paint cans etc. I wouldn't change tires (tyres) any other way now.
Although I hadn't thought about the bothering the neighbours cat reason.
A word of advice: Check the tools first for pressure/volume required
THEN buy a compressor capable of supplying those requirements. I was
lucky, other friends have discovered that the $150 saved now doesn't
look so good as they buy a second compressor to run their paint cans or
ratchets.
My $0.02
