Basic air tools?

[Trevorleach]

Hoping to have a tidy up day today so I will let yo know if I find anything.
The Chisel, Its a good make but I sold my Snap on one with chisels for £25 and it took ages to sell, have look at the older ads on Marketplace

Do not no matter what you do look at the current air chisel prices!

Edit sorry air chisel gets you the bits, and air hammer gets you the gun itself.

If you do much bodywork, an air saw is very useful for intricate and curved cuts... the cheaper ones tend to stall a bit, but you could spend a monkey on a good one

I restore my own MB cars, these are my air tools



Everything else is Milwaukee etc cordless. In terms of air power these tools I have are best being air vs electric IMO. The CP air impact isn't used any more I have 2no high torque M18 ones instead.

Thank you. Some immediate success with @dan.taylor.1's tools - we hooked up the impact driver with some bits of hose for a test, and despite leaks all over the place it managed to remove the corroded-in valve plug on top of the secondhand, elderly compressor pump on the blue compressor I mentioned earlier. We'd failed to shift this with a 6ft bar previously! On removal, the lowest thread had been stripped off, I guess through corrosion bonding it to the pump head, which explains why it was so hard to remove. Nicely cleaned up on a 3/4" BSP die, I now discover I haven't got a 3/4" plug tap to clean the head so that's the next job.

With more parts to clean of paint, I'm leaning towards a 2-3" angle grinder/sander thing next as they look the business for removal of various amounts of material with the Roloc quick-change discs I see everywhere.

I very recently got a 90° die grinder for use with 6mm shank roloc tooling, and even with cheap abrasives I'm wondering how it's taken me so long to get one as it basically paid for itself in one job.
