Re: Air Tool Questions

Check out Craftsman compressor, the larger ones come with some tools(3/8" air ratchet, 3/8" impact, and other stuff) & then get yourself a good 1/2" impact. I have a 500ft lb gun that isn't enough sometimes, then its time for the 3/4" 1,000 ft lb gun. That mofo weighs like 15 lbs.

How big of a compressor are you thinking about? I have a 30 gallon 6HP at home. Thats about the smallest I would suggest.

If you plan on doing a lot of work then impact sockets are a must since the chromers break so easily(no matter what brand snap-on,mac, matco, cornwell, etc.)

1/2" impact
3/8" impact
3/8" air ratchet
1/4" air ratchet

^^ those listed are the most common air tools I use during my day.
