Yeh, now you can bust fastners quicker on assembly, causing more work too.........

Rats, I forgot....you only disassemble

I've been wanting a 450+ ft. lb. impact for a while now. My cheaper than JP dirt H.F. unit ain't cuttin it anymore.

Remember that those big air guns take big pressure and big CFM to get the rated power from them...

The little toy air compressors with standard 1/4 NPT fitings can rob your power drastically...

If you spool up your new toy (with no load) and hear it slightly slow down a second or two after you wind it up you can bet your ass that your compressor or lines, or both are not adequate....

Funny, as soon as I got some air tools I never seemed to use them besides filling tires and removing wheels and that is about it.
