Anyone know anything about these??
I'm looking at getting one for general mechanical uses and spray painting and in the future running a nail gun.
I've heard the ones you get from the car shops haven't got enough ooompf and to get the job done properly you need a decent sized unit.

I got mine from Trade Tools at Capalaba, twin cylinder and about 12CFM i think
65 Meyers Manx
68 Country Buggy (KO 367)
68 Country Buggy (KO 669)
68 Country Buggy (KO 789)
68 Country Buggy (KO 815)
68 Baja Bug
76 Baja Kombi Twincab
I bought a PUMA 17 cfm from Glenfords tools at Lawrence Drive Nerang
It was about $699 I think and $799 got me the regulator and a decent length of hose and fittings thrown in, I have been more than happy with it and its big enough for most applications.
I Sprayed Herbie with it and run Die grinders and rattle guns etc.
No Problems.
62 Ragtop Herbie with a little extra oomph.
and don`t forget a large tank ,more air held the longer between refills
Cheers
I'll go back to trade tools and suss things out. i was scared they were trying to sell me something bigger than i needed but it sounds as if they were spot on.
