Which gallon size of air compressors
Sep 7, 2021, 3:49 PM

are good for “most jobs”. Just like blowing up car tires,boat tires, floats, maybe a drill to rotate tires….just easy stuff.
I do not have the room for a rolling one or a whole tank, plus I don’t need it that much.

But we're all pretending to be offensive coordinator geniuses today. Get with the program.

You need. They all say they run more than they do.

Is Makita better than Milwaukee?
Sep 7, 2021, 4:12 PM
|

Follow-up questions: Is it pronounced "mill-e-wah-que" and is that Algonquin for "the good land"?
TIA

Very very close in quality.

Both are excellent. Big steps above the Dewalt and Ryobi stuff. Milwaukee has a little more street cred with the NASCAR crowd with $10k snap-on toolboxes.
I liked that makita had a big selection of yard tools that Milwaukee doesn’t have, but then Milwaukee has some nice specialty tools geared towards the shop trades that Makita doesn’t have.

Pancake will do most jobs...

For tires, get an electric (battery) impact. I use a DeWalt. Never had any trouble with my F-150 lugs and they are set to 150 ft-lbs.

Not sure what size, but I got one from walmart for like $80

probably 15 years ago that does the job quite well for me. Only really use it to inflate tires, did run a nail gun off of it one time.
Now, I'm ALWAYS plugged in when using it and that works fine for me. If you need portability with no access to power, that's where I'd start worring about air capacity more.
