Costco air tool set

Not sue the quality will be there for that money, but for in frequent home use it might be ok.

Cirtainly got most air tools you'll need.



I can vouch for the chipping hammer, of that style at least, being capable of digging up floors for access to central heating pipes. ::)



Anyway, just a thought. :)

Presume in store as well.

It does.


Can't be that good for the money though surely. :-\ so probably won't take heavy use ????

Yes I'm so soooo lucky.


It's a badly soldered joint. Been like it since the house was built. ::)

Still, when the room is sorted, I can chuck out that totally useless dining room table and chairs and put one of these in. :y

Good luck with that mortgage application.

Actually, a mate of mine runs a laser cutting company and made one out of wood. Will have to try and find a photo...

I thought if I park it with the main drive in the mirrors it will be more realistic. Staff can use the trade entrance as normal. :D

Just to add as posted on the other thread, I have a air hammer as the one in the set, but by a different manufacturer. Ideal for removing steering idlers. BAAAAA and of it popped. Seemples .

At least a 25litre compressor. Bigger if possible. Gets expensive though.

And an air line long enough to reach. Lidl did a 30metre(?) retractable one a few here have. Don't bother with those curly plastic hoses.

I prefer euro fittings personally.
