I was in lowes today and I noticed they have a pretty decent line of air tools. They were made in china (figures) but they seemed pretty solid, and they were also pretty cheap. The box said "by LG Sourcing". So I looked up the site (lgsourcing.com), and it says its a lowes company. I guess they are getting into the importing buisness or something?

Has anybody used these? They arnt super high powered or super light, but they seem pretty good solid. 200ftlb 3/8 impact for like 50$ or so. Just curious who is using thier stuff. THey have alot of composite tools.

I was given the seemingly 11-zillion piece kit with 1/2 impact, 3/8 ratchet, air hammer and other goodies. Everything seems to work fine for me in the garage at home. The air fittings all have rubber o-rings, so each time you use a tool you take it out of the case, hand-tighten on the air fitting, and then disassemble again for storage in the case. If you twist the air line too much during use it will leak and you have to tighten the o-ring fitting again. That's my only complaint- the case the kit comes with isn't designed to hold air tools with fittings permanently mounted.
