hey guys ive a snap on compressor with a 200l tank my workshop is 60 by 30 ive ran the air pipe around the walls and i was thinking of adding 2 100l air tanks at different places along the air pipe so as i dont lose pressure in the line while using airguns etc and to boost the volume of air...

but they have to answer to someone somewhere dont they

had problems with warrenty before but got sorted but this time i upgraded my diagnostics and signed up a finance agreement and found out after the guy didnt put it through snap on but financed it himself and charged me 21% more than snap on charges

in ireland it is impossible to insure tools i know this because in 2007 the wifes landrover went on fire and burnt the workshop to the ground i thought i had the tools insured for 100,000euro but its in the small print that you can insure equipment ie compressor, hyd press etc but not hand tools.
