Default No more compressor (for now)

Well as you may have seen i got my air compressor, but today i realized that the CFM ratings were not right. It had less than what was advertised. We took it back and got a nice discount on the last shelf compressor with the right ratings.[:@] Go figure that the stupid thing doesnt work. Whenever you turn it on the pump just runs and the tank isnt filling. It has probably sat on the shelf for awhile (years). We are taking it back and are done with Home Dpeot. We are spending a bit more for a better craftsmen compressor. I was ready to use the thing too. Today I bought an air ratchet, cutoff tool, and die grinder. Oh well just venting. So bear with me!
I am ordering my flowmaster sometime this week![8D]

IR is expensive! I am sure that craftsmen will be very good quality.

Went to Lowe's for my 22 gallon compressor. Got the last one of its size. Works great but recently it started slowly making a ticking noise and releasing air ever so slowly. I think it may be the new hose I have. Either way, I love the air ratchet and impact drill.
