So that seems to go against the previous posts about needing a receiver tank. That’s way more than I’d need but I guess it still depends on the compressor.

That’s very comprehensive and extremely helpful to explain why I need to do it that way, or perhaps go for a smaller compressor that I can move with my tool cart. Thank you for that information. I am in the uk you’re right, but I’m sure I can get similar here. I do like the idea of a small...

Well I guess the follow on question is what sort of compressor should I buy that is suitable for home use (16a supply) but might help minimise my losses across the hose?

I like this idea too, I might look for a small 26/30 inch box that is suitable to be modified with pneumatic casters

That’s not such a bad idea, or at least take a cart that exists and modify it, that could work.

If I can avoid laying pipe to bury that would be good, I'll likely be getting like a 50-100L compressor, not high end but not dirt cheap either, but don't want to do that if the pressure drop would be too much. How can I work this out? Anyone know?

I'm thinking something similar to this but more robust

Thanks for the reply. Yes I did say that the roll cab probably wouldn't be the answer, and that a "cart" of some sort might be better. I thought though with the big wheels the pit cart would be ok over what is actually more like cotswold buff rather than gravel, and this may also be converted...

Hi Further to my first post about a roll cab, I also need to buy a compressor for my workshop - similar to the first question, the workshop is far from where I will actually need the tools. My idea was to store the compressor there, and have a hose reel that I can extend all the way to the...
