I've got one, it's not big, you can't use it for massive jobs but I like it. Don't get me wrong, I would like a 150litre 3hp one but they cost alot of money.

I've got:

- The compressor
- Air ratchet (not what you'd call fast but if for example you are taking an engine apart and have lots of bolts it saves you a bit of wrist ache)
- Air impact wrench (hit and miss, but it got the big bolt off the alternator basket when doing Squirrel's SV)
- Air filter and regulator which is also inline lubricator (tis crap, leaks air at the
lubricator adjuster so I don't know if it actually lubricates but the air filter bit works well


You pay £80 for a compressor and you'll get an £80 air compressor. I am hoping to go and buy the air shears and cut off tool for mine.
