[Shotimes] OT (sort of): Air Tools

[sho2go]

my roofer and I were having this conversation, when I saw his craftsman
single stage on his truck.  He says they are cheap, last a year, and then he
gets a new one.  So I guess it depends on how much use you have in mind.
Also did you mention noisy?  Thought so .
