    Air Hose Reel Needed - Best For Reasonable Price??

    Have been looking through threads for a good air hose reel choice. I have 75ft. of 3/8" diameter rubber hose (good quality, so I'd like to keep them......I could reduce the length to 50ft, as I have two sections, 25 & 50ft together). I'd be satisfied with a hand crank reel vs. a...
