Hello everyone,
A long time lurker on the forum and just wanted to pick some brains.. I know there are a lot of threads on Which Compressor etc, so please forgive me!
I'm looking to buy a compressor to run Ratchets, Impact drivers, DA's, Spray guns (I'm very uneducated, so need to read up) and...
Thanks for the replies everyone! This thread has definitely delivered!!
I'm going to have a little experiment and see how I get on.

The property has an excellent basement, perfect for a workshop. The trouble is at the moment, the basement is extremely damp.
The brickwork is...
As luck will have it the Chassis is sound =D
Where will i be looking at getting a torch service kit? any links?
I did see some of thier reputation on here but i think it might be worth a gamble ;)
Just wondering if anyone can help or point me in the right direction. I've got this Mac Tools (Stanley) MIG 165 Turbo.
The welder would not arc up, Power would turn on, fan would power on but when the torch was pressed the fuse would blow in the house.
I sent it off to my friend at a welding...
Hey everyone :waving:
