Impact driver extensions, sockets and drive bits?

I bought myself a second hand 500 litre compressor principally for my plasma cutter and a 250 litre would probably enough but it was at a good price! The higher volume seems to condense out the water better and running a nail gun will make it start up once a week!

Damn.
Parker seems to be G1/4".
Air gun seems to be NTP 1/4". 18 vs.19 tpi and all the fun.
It would have been too easy and neat.

ebay is knee deep in adaptors - here is just one random example:

Though I did recently buy a set of 1/4 npt taps and dies for just this issue :)
PK:
I have put many, many, 1/4" BSPT fittings into 1/4"NPT tools. I like using liquid tape which helps a bit, but at the end of the day its just another example of 'Brute force and lubrication' solving the worlds problems...

It's probably not an issue for the home user but I recall talking to several businesses about how they might save energy by using electric rather than air tools.
