The cable is 1.8m long, so you only need a short air line, although there's nothing to stop you buying a length of air line hose to suit your needs

EBay for a Aldi/Lidl used compressor. Just change the fittings as the obeys they fit are leaky and crap.

If you want to seat tyres you need something with a resevoir

By the way, if you ever buy a cheapy like this one:


Then replace the stupid little manifold/regulator thing with a straight T fitting or combinations thereof, you would not believe the restriction in the stock one. Impact gun actually impacts things after that modification!
