The item
This compressor would be a great addition to the workshop. They are great for a whole range of tasks:
- Spray painting
- Pumping up tires
- Quickly cleaning swarf from tools
Surprising Tom Scott on his way out of the toilet- Attaching tools like shears, wrenches, nailers etc
- Cleaning dust from inside electronics
- Cleaning crap from lasercutter cooling tubes
- Attach a pressure vessel and you have a cannon!
With the built in chamber it can provide a greater, consistent and variable supply of compressed air over a "put put" style of compressor currently found in the space.
Additional information
- Drying the air and other notes
- Auto drain (because nobody will remember otherwise, and the tank will rust)
