Is this a good price for this combo kit , besides wood work does a nail gun serve as big a purpose for do at home jobs ? I could find long term use for the compressor but I wonder what much like even for galvanize or z purlins to build a shed , could the nail gun be of any use
that type of nail gun is called FINISH NAILERS - shoots thin almost headless nails , used mainly for fine smaller wood work like trim work , speaker box , cupboards , cabinets etc ... not for heavy duty like roof like 2x4 wood etc , for that u will need a FRAMING NAIL GUN & a more powerful compressor
that kit good for light duty casual small projects or occasional tire pressuring
for me personally smallest compressor i wud buy is a 30 gallon none oil-less type which is still a bit portable
youtube have plenty info on this stuff ....

These designs are good.
However I found the drawer slides on the heavy side, prob 2+lbs.
Some guys use shower curtain rods as rails with blocks sliding on them.
I am going to build over and use that way.
Also dimensions can be adjusted to make more compact.

Most likely yes. In Carapichaima.
You will not beat an upright for normal vacuuming of carpeting in a home or office but the costs can be high.Ted_v2 wrote:Looking for a vacuum cleaner for home use and my vehicles
i have a small shopvac and its alot of power but too small and short hose. I had one some years ago and it failed due to being run for more than 30 mins, this micro model on its way out too. i currently also have a upright vacuum and thats a total waste.
my house is 95 percent carpet so..
recommend me something.
go with a regular wet and dry shop vac or theres a better option?

Will finish next time I work on it.
Better design than the drawer slides, slides easier and no play at extension of the slides.
Got the chromoly rods from old shocks, made a mess dismantling the first shock and got sprayed with foul spoilt hydraulic oil.
Need to work up connection to vacuum hose for dust collection next.Strugglerzinc wrote:I have many of you want.

It works great however there is some flex on the router mount plate as the locally available plywood is rather soft.
Anybody know of any better quality options for plywood ?
Worst case will use a metal plate.

So far as brands, Yamaha and Honda have worked well in my experience. The noise is about the same as a radio playing.Calor wrote:ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMALL/DOMESTIC SILENT GENERATOR?
