So, a friend donated his spare 2hp air compressor to a good cause (ie, me... :-) ). It was reputed to have a fault, ie, didn't run. However that turned out to be a hidden circuit breaker.
My problem now is that I need hose, tools and fittings. I'm a bit confused as to what is usually used,(in australia) what the difference between 'nitto' jaco, is, etc.
I'm planning to put the compressor under the floor of my 'shed' run a 5m hose to a convenient place and have an outlet 'fixed' so I can plug in a recoil type hose for light use,
Any good references which explains fittings? Also, what have you found to be the most useful tools? Thinking duster, die grinder, small abrasive blaster, inflation and maybe small spray gun.
Thanks
