    A small compressor like that won't run a die grinder continuously. You will have a lot of "catch up" time to examine your work whilst waiting for the tank to refill. Die grinders use prodiguous quantities of air. Remember, in compressed air and hydraulics, flow = speed, pressure = force or power. Die grinders run at very high speeds. I have the largest compressor that will run on 240 volts. It requires a 15 amp outlet, and it won't keep up with my die grinders.

    HA HA, it all works now, the 3/8" Ratchet Wrench was actually ratchet from the start and I had to take it back today for a replacement. Goodie because I received the upgraded one with twin ratchet pawl's and 3 torque settings all in all a stronger Ratchet.

    I actually need something to break so I have something to do, better get out on a few trips .

    Or sell the Disco and buy an old dunga, you'll have plenty to fix then and the tools will get a workout

    I hear you Trav. If I wasnt trying to buy in to a business at the moment I probably would put some of the money to an old Rangie to go mad in.
    The air compressor has already nearly paid for it self blowing out the crap from my Generator carbie and fuel system instead of sending it out to get fixed. Its great for all types of uses.
    Just need to find a use for it in the bed room and it would be the perfect tool.
