Equipping a workshop - first off a compressor and welder

I’ve had a cheapo copy Makita 18v impact for a few years now. It’s not killed any of my genuine Makita batteries and still going strong. For the money it’s perfect for dirty jobs and handy for nut running etc.

Well the latest addition has been collected. 100L 3hp compressor, it’s 10yr old but all works and seems to be in good condition. Hope it lasts for £110. Hasn’t seen much use as the guy had good intentions of using a blast cabinet etc but the  only used it for inflating tyres etc.

 

Got a few fittings with it but I need to get a tyre inflator etc retractable air line etc.

Think I might set it up in my shipping container and run pipes from it, so the noise is away from me, and also haven’t got the workshop door yet. I will price up airline and see how much I’m likely to need. If not I will build a little store for it out the back of the workshop in time
