I didn't see a tooling section so I wasn't sure where to post this but...
Hey guys, I've picked up a pair of impacts one 3/8 and one 1/2 inch. I will also be picking up a few other air tools later on down the road and I was wanting to pick up a compressor for home automotive use. Just wondering if you guys could recommend me one?
Thanks

I was looking at this one. I've always heard that Husky makes very good Air Compressors.

Biggest thing we need to know is your budget. Can you go $400? $600? Only got $200? Etc...
Next, is 220V OK, or does it need to be 120V?
Lastly, portable or stationary (with or without wheels)?

Yep, I can do 400-600 on a compressor. I would like it to be 120V for now but to have the ability to upgrade later to a 220. I know that some of them can be rewired to accept 220 and will have two different ratings on them.
Also, I guess I'd rather have portable, but it's not a must. Stationary would be just fine.
