I know I asked about this a few weeks ago but this came up on eBay and didn't meet reserve. I was the high bidder and spoke to the seller the next morning (this morning).

Now it's in my garage and I have to figure out exactly how I'm going to work with it... But who cares, I just like to look at it.

Are you saying you bought a compressor but don't have a use for one?

If yes, then you are officially the coolest geezer on the forum.

Infortunatley no... I am not in the running for coolerst .org member

I do have a use for it, I currently have a little one (oo-er) but it just doesn't have enough guts about it, we have used it to power my rattle gun and air ratchet but and it does a good job but just doesn't have enough to power it proper style innit.

Now THIS one.... 5.5hp petrol, 110 litre tank. This'll run my air drill, ratcher, impact wrenchNo, what I meant was that it's a big old unit and seeing as it emits exhaust, I'm not sure how to go about placing it.

Either wheel it outside and turn it on, or do I build it a little house next to the garage for it to live it and pipe the air through to the garage...

Choices choices.. Did I mention it's flipping big
