Noise problem is, everyone makes noise in this street. Guy next to me works in some garage. I am sure he is a car mechanic. On weekends, he repairs some old banger cars in his shed or drive way, and noise of grinding metal and drilling is very loud. It used to continue for all day, and sometimes he plays music from car stereo while working as well. Absolutely blaring.
The guy on the other side has workshop in his backgarden, and I think he makes wooden furnitures. We hear either router or table saw going most of the days.
Houses at the back are too far to hear, but still can hear some powertools from them as well.
And then they all have petrol mowers and hedge cutters and grass streamers. They are loud. So a small air compressor wont make much difference I am sure
Yes, I think the Stanley one seems too small and under capacity, and has some really aweful reviews. But I was attracted to free tool kit with it.
But I found the tool kits can be bought for 15-20 £ from Amabay, so it seems not big deal.
I think another one called Impax air compressor seem better one. It has more HP and larger tank. The reviews are not too bad. In fact, excellent.
My main use will be cleaning tools and tyre inflation, and then maybe one or two air tools later to add for versatility.
I have some credit voucher for SF, so will need to get something from them, and best thing seems the air compressor and arc welder. I have most of other tools now, but those two.
