looking at the 'members on line' list, I'm guessing that the horizontal rain/hail/sleet is pretty well country wide ATM ?? bloody grim here :(
Not exactly an outside day I'll be honest. Dinner time and then go find out why compressors gone off so i can carry on de-rusting me pickup

nah ... they're a bit 'air hungry' but beats the hell out of a chipping hammer/chisel/wire brush ..... larger or second unit to help out required 'praps ? :unsure: .... as discussed in Gus's thread a while ago ... 2 x 14 cfm a lot cheaper than 1 x 28 cfm ... add/tee a couple of 47kg bottles into the line .. let it all fill before kicking off and'd give everything an easier time (y)

I usually run needle gun on road compressor but get a bit of hassle with moisture even with a trap in the line so I'm only actually using it for small bits off this compressor.
