I was thinking about setting up my shop using some excess scuba tanks
that I have. I am lucky enough to own my own scuba compressor but it
gets used maybe 3 months out of the year. I'd like to use the hpa to
run impact wrench, air ratchets, etc. It wouldn't be for constant use
but if I'd like to, let's say, rebuild a motor or paint a car, I'd
think it would come in handy.
