Thanks for all the responses to my previous question.
Here are a couple of things I have learned by talking to some people around town...
- Home Depot in Rhode Island has been getting alot of returns of the Ridgid compressors. None of the sales floor are recommend them due to the high number of returns.
- Although the oil-lube models are quieter, finish carpenters are using oil-less inside because the oil-lubed models spray oil. I was told that you need to make sure the oil-lube compressor is not near a wall because of the spray.
- Dewalt seems to be the brand of choice around here.
- The PC compressor that comes with the finish nailer kit will drive a framing nailer, although not very well.
Thoughts on these thoughts ?? Thanks again.
