The item
This compressor would be a great addition to the workshop. They are great for a whole range of tasks:
- Spray painting : note, needs oil filter
- Pumping up tires
- Quickly cleaning swarf from tools (wear eye protection)
Surprising Tom Scott on his way out of the toilet- Attaching tools like shears, wrenches, nailers etc : note, needs oil added to air
- Cleaning dust from inside electronics (wear eye protection)
- 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
