Default Tool recomendations

I have been looking around on the sears site for a few things I want/need and wanted a few recomendations on an air compressor and a cordless tool set (drill and accessories etc.....) Obviously they will be used primarily for the car and bikes but also for any of the home projects that are sure to come up.

of course if I save any more lives this week I may buy them myself

Tom

Whichever you go with.. make sure you have enough air flow and psi for the tasks you intend. I have a little porter cable for odd jobs and its enough for me

At first I was thinking about this one

http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_009C0422000B

but then I think john said something that its not quite enough if youre operating a nail gun. I liked that its small and kinda portable, but may be better off with the one you listed carl. It also looks like it got plenty of good reviews.

The one Carl listed is nice. I wish I bought an upright. Mine is a little bigger at 33 gallons but it takes up more room...

Was looking at this one as well not too long ago for my house/bike(s)/car; good to see some input on it. Thanks!
