    Help, please: Compressor Question

    cant say for sure, but that doesn't sound right to me. i have a 1 gallon ( or so) junn air. it will charge in a bit more than a minute. it runs the lindsay for a good while before it kicks back in . not sure if the gravermach should bleed air. if so, it's probably bleeding more air than you think.

    Relief tools

    there are those that use an nsk or such for very close work. but one must work with care. these rotary tools can buck and do cutting where it's not wanted. the rotaries have a mind of their own.
