Went to check out some air powered tools yesterday(?... getting old, not
enough sleep) on the advice from Wayne. Whew.... could there be more
different compressors? 1 1/2 hp, 2hp, 3hp and up to 6 hp. Don't know what a
die grinder is, but they had a slew of different tools... even some in
multipacks. Air hammers, air drivers, grinding tools, attachments... looked
like an oversized dremel set. Got a catalog form Lowe's on Porter Cable
power tools and accessories.

I can feel it happening.... the tools are dragging me in to their dark
side....(soooooftly)... buy me, buy me, buy meeeeeee. It's funny, I went
there to find a Vise Grip 10LW, which they didn't have. Right behind me were
all the air powered tools... drooool.

Wayne, that was just damn cruel. I might have been satisfied with a Dremel
set, with all the accessories. Now, I WANT MORE POWER.

Ok, enough gabbling(very tired). They had a nice accessory set for about
$95, but not one with metric snap ons. What hp compressor should I be
looking for? They had some from $150 to $300.

Anyway, thanks for the information, Wayne. Now all I have to do is convince
my wife that I'll use them for more than working on my car, lol.

Later,
Mark
