    Need inexpensive air compressor

    Does anyone have any leads on good deals on air compressors? I don't need anything fancy or expensive. It will be for my house, occasional use. I use impact wrenches and air ratchets mainly. Occasionally need to use my die grinder or orbital sander (I know these need higher CFM, but I only need them rarely). I'm thinking minimum 17-20 gallon (I can always add an auxiliary tank later if needed). Oh, electric is preferred.

    Anyone have any ideas?

      I'd check harbor freight. That's where I got mine and they usually have some on sale.

        Bought mine at Sears, came with some air tools and 150 ft of hose for 300 bucks. Had it about 5 years.

            I have a 30 gallon from Habor Freight and it works well for occasional use. Had it about 4 Yrs. I think I paid a little over 200.

                      Haven't shopped for one, but you might also try Northern Tool.

                      I always enjoy a walk through there when I'm in Houston, lots of cool toys in there.

                              Yes I got the mass text yesterday. Huge sale infact they say the biggest sale they have ever had all weekend.... Go online Rudey and print you a 20% off coupon... They will take it off the sale price as well... I picked up my $150 retail generator on a sale for only $79 with the coupon

                              I dont normally walk in there without a coupon but even if you forget one just tell the manager you forgot it and they will take care of it..
