    Air Compressor Pipe

    Yeah, it’s pretty slick. Really easy to add to it without having to disassemble. Just drill a hole and bolt on the fitting…. I haven’t priced it since I bought mine 10 or so years ago but I’d bet the lengths of pipe are cheaper than copper now. Jon h.

    Ratcheting Wrench vs Ratchet - Which One Should I Get?

    A lot of jobs can be done with the standard tools a home mechanic has in his tool box. My $200 Sears basic mechanic set circa 1994 got me through a lot of cars and I still have them in my tool box. One gets used to doing jobs with the tools at hand.
