It's so refreshing to hear your straight no nonsense approach style.
The air lines set up is genius and oh my I love your workshop
Must say, I have a similar setup here in my workshop - love it.
Great video, David. Keep up the good work.
Regards, Doc from Australia.
Thanks DOC for the comment and for watching
Just bought my first compressor, brilliant video to get me started Thanks Scott
Thank you
I agree with you that what you have are excellent value. If you are into furniture making then another good tool to have is the spray gun as it saves a huge amount of time and gives a very fine finish whether in paint or varnish, even hot liquid bees-wax can be sprayed.
Not something i have tried only ever sprayed a fence with electric and got sick of un-clogging it
Love my Brother Video he always show amazing thing with hands and how use your tools and keep clean and safe , As he said they expensive , So look after them ,,
Fantastic great to hear someone with common sense use compressed air nailers for timber framing, finish carpentry very cheap to buy easy to service in fact used the very same compressor to remodel a full house still going strong!!! Great guy that man
Thanks Mark i appreciate the kind works, thanks for watching
Can't beat Aldi and Lidl Dave, have a nice day !!!
Thanks you too
My Aldi table saw imploded which was quite frightening at the time. When I phoned Works who put me through to Einhell who put me through to Scheppach (it might have been the other way round) it seemed it’s a common problem with one of the housing bolts. They took it back straight away and the money went straight into my bank. I have a Works multi tool though that I would put up against any top make.
I picked up that exact same compressor for £20 at a car boot. Cleaned it up, needed a couple bits and bobs. Spent maybe £15 fixing it. My god an air compressor is a must
Well done David!! Another winner, well explained
Great video, I have just bought a small compressor for a sandblasting box, (cleaning up Tonka toys...) but I hadn't really thought beyond th project, Ill be getting a few more tools to use with the compressor as a result of this video!. Thanks very much! Really easy to watch and informative!
Sound a good idea for it
Very good. I can watch you all day my first Nairgun was 135 👍👍👍
Thank you Brian, and your right as i have over 340 videos you could watch me all day lol, but very kind words thank you
Great video and description. a lateral view of using your compressor.. extending its use by piping it through your workshop!.. and No Music! :)
Amazing setup 👍
very good idea Dave having the outlets coming down and so many of them you will never need to move the compressor again.
Yes it makes it easy when using the tools to have it just over your head
Excellent video , I have a Stanley similar size compressor and he is right, the noise is unbelievable, so I boxed mine in , soundproofed the inside and put it on wheels, cut the noise down by around seventy percent .
Yes Simon that sounds like a good idea if you have to keep it in the same room
Excellent and informative video thank you
Just picked up a used one (with a few tools) for doing odd bits with - I hadn't considered rigging up some pipework and keeping the compressor out of earshot. I'll have to seriously tidy my garage first lol.
have fun Noble Wolf thanks for watching
You have a beautiful workshop mate! my goal for the future! one I have now not so big.
Keep up the dream and it will be, as we all started in small workshops in fact my first was a bedroom in a council flat in Bradford
@Luka Vega thank you
You might experience a bit of moisture in your tools when it gets hot, I know it won't be as ergonomic to have your overhead sockets horizontal but a "t" with a bleed nipple lower than the socket would solve this.
You don't want to knacker all your new tools up!
Thats for the tip i will look into it
Thanks for the video David, I'm buying a system for my workshop! Sam
Yes it's been a great addition to my shop
Nice workshop
Great Vid. Thanks. 👍❤😁
Very inspiring video. I want to buy the same set-up but the connectors confuse me. There seem to be a lot of different sizes. How do I know my gun will connect to the line and line to the compressor? It's really confusing for a beginner like me.
Hi yes they did me so i just went to Machinemart and they helped no end
Great video David , just starting my workshop ,
Thanks David, have a look at my Workshop Grand Tour, you will find it in my playlist
Thanks David. Helpful vid. Just bought the same compressor. Would appreciate any advice you can offer on size of quick couplings etc. Feels weird that they don't write fitting size on the box or paperwork. Cheers.
Hi Emmet to be honest i had a big problem with getting fittings i ended up taking one to Machine Mart if you have such a store and had them advise me on what they had. but make sure you get a water drain fitter to your airline
@@dmgladden Thanks David.
Ingenious idea with the copper piping
Thanks Garviel
Thanks Garviel i guess its the plumber in me every thing goes in copper lol
Super vid thanks very much
Nice looking workshop you have there.
Thanks Dash its my play room lol
I don't want to sound like im being rude about you/your video mate but buying a compressor that size is great but offers you no room to grow, that compressor wont run anything other than a nail gun, air blow gun as it does not have enough free air to run a spray gun, sander etc. also have the outlets like you have means any moisture/water will be feed straight threw the tool causing damage (rust/corrosion) inside of the tool itself. A water trap would be a good idea and also its worth taking into account the longer the airline run the more pressure drop you will have at the end of it. Them nail guns are good for the money though and can be used with a small bore hose as they don't require a high volume of air just pressure
Also you said if your doing a lot of sanding buy an electric sander because they are better which is very much not the case, i have a expensive electric sander that was recommend to me by a lot of people but put side by side next to my air sander id go air every time as it gives a better surface finish and its better balanced
Are you standing on bloody bubble wrap mate?
😂
I've always wanted a compressor setup, they seem so damn handy. I didn't realise you could buy them from Aldi. Might have to pick one up.
Lidl had them last September both in France and the UK for around £80.often they have air tools for sale during the year as well.
@@loosewheels1000 if you go to them online you've more chance of getting them ans delivery is only about £4
Very helpful. Thanks
Great video, good to hear a true English accent. I have the same compressor but bought mine from Lidl about the same price, I’ve also got the same nail gun from Amazon. It makes life so much easier.
Yes Ian its already being a great help to me but its not the first time so i know this time what i wanted and needed to get.
excellent, thanks for sharing.
Your welcome thanks for watching
If your thinking of a compressor for sanding forget it , I have quite a big compressor and its still not big enough and I have to keep waiting for it to build presser up again, I have a quality random orbital sander im not able to use now and I had to buy an electric one . I got used to the air sanders in my job and realised they are the best but they need to be used with a compressor that runs a factory .
Yes Pat like i said such tools in a workshop should be electric, the ones i show are as far as i will be going.
I see what Father Xmas got you for Xmas lol.............nice one!!!
No Ken this one came a bit back Santa got me a set of FPV goggles for my drones
I'm going to commit t an airline in my garage.. can you tell us what the copper solder joints to threaded connectors are called please...? My compressor is vey similar apart from needing PCL XF fittings to the flexible hoses. I also think the threaded ends are called 3/8th BSF.. I don't know where this measurement comes from as it doesn't seem to measure like that.. the outside diameter of my threads are half inch! any help appreciated
Hi yes it's known as an 1/2" iron they can be male or female depending on what you need
I use air for sanding and blasting. The size of our compressors in in the states is pretty insane. 60 gal 5 HP compressors are in millions of garages across the country.
yes with sanding as its a long job and anything with a disc acts as a brake which uses a lot more power or air in this case so it is best you have a very big supply on hand
Hi there David
Is this unit ok for spraying?
Been thinking of getting one and a spray gun for a car project.
Happy New Year pal.
Yes and i have seen Aldi doing there own kit to go with this compressor but im not into that so didnt get one
As long as its small areas at a time - it will run out of air reasonable quickly with jobs that require extended constant airlfow like spray painting, sand blasting etc. As long as you are aware of that and plan accordingly it could work ok
Thank you Dave. I have some Lidl air tools. no compressor yet as blew the budget on tools. I have a question for you, do the air hoses become rock hard in cold weather or stay pliable because that drives me insane ? I have had Chicago Pneumatic grinders for years whilst employed as a welder and despite regular oiling always broke down so never bought one but also spoilt work by over oiling so go easy folks I never could judge how much to fill up with,maybe an inline oiler would help,never used one.Lidl,s longish warranty is also good but keep your receipts.
I have both types but till it arrives i find its a guess which it will be i had the hard ones too i have a 10m which i got and that is great but just got a 5m and thats already hard, i oil my tools just after use and i put a bit in the air pipe of the tool, i will soon put an inline oil drip in but not time yet also a water filter drain
Nice video David enjoyed will defiantly inspire me to do the same with my system bought from b&q many thanks David are you going to makers central next year hope to see you there
All the very best in the new year
Thanks Harry, no sorry am going to drone school get all qualified and stuff
Hey mate great video and set up, but maybe you should track down that leak you have when your compressor built-up air, we can all hear it when you tested your stapler... just saying...
Its the hose connectors I got them from Amazon and they leak, if you have a link for a good supplier I would appreciate it
How old is this video . What nail and staple guns are they how much and where did you get them ? Any information would be appreciated thanks. Another great video
Hi and thanks, the video has a date stamp as all do (31 Dec 2018) if you play the video again at time frame 3.30 i tell you where i got the tools, and with a quick search you will find a number of air tools to choose from, hope this helps. Thanks again for watching
any ideas on what maintenance the compressor will need David
Hi Ken, no but you can be sure as soon as it needs one ill be doing a video of it
You could've got the silverline 633524 nail/stapler all in one gun which also goes up to 50mm.
Thanks for the info personally I prifure to have them separate, firstly so I can be using both at the same time but mainly if one goose faulty I don't loose both but it's good for those with less funds
I’m new here and just sub’d. Do you have any links for the fittings. I have all the gear you have but unsure what fittings to get. Thanks. Great tips video. Cheers
I get most of my air fittings from Machine Mart but do a online search you might find cheaper as for the pipe fittings tool station would be as good a place as any to keep it cheap
i was told that you Can use pp water pipes for air as well. they should holding till 12 bar or so, compressors give 8, Max 10 bar. Has anyone experience with that?
@@hansdegroot8549 i couldn't advise more than i have im afraid as i have never tried at such high pressure

Good video, You have given me the idea of using copper pipe to set the line to the other side of the outbuilding, Happy New Year to you and the family
Thank Mike and all the best for you and yours for the new year
Nice video, can u let me no cheap n cheerful one as I wouldn't b using it much
Hi like I say in the video Aldi £79 can't do better than that I don't think
I've got the same compressor, but find the small tank limits the use of tools such as die grinders. I've rigged up a 2nd tank (old propane tank) but the compressor trips the trip switch, as it runs for a longer time to fill up 😕
My last one was 90lts i had Sanders Drills and the same tools i have now, but found i never used them and when i did, most of the time i had finished the job before the compressor has filled so i down graded to what i know i will use, drill sanders, grinders are all electric, for me thats the simple way
Was your wife also from Aldi and cheap ........😂😂😂😂.....just joking David, nice workshop thanks for sharing !
Just wondering could the plastic plumbing pipeing be used instead of copper, cheaper I think and easier to set up.
As a plumber i can say for sure its not cheaper, the pipe if long distance is cheaper but the fittings are not and with inserts needed in every end of every joint the cost keeps mountain but as for pressure? Water comes to most at around 2-3bar this little compressor is kicking out 8 bar so i wouldn't risk it but also I've never tried it so it might
As a gas engineer I would say that an alternative to the 15-mm copper would in fact be a roll of 12-mm malleable copper as it can be bent round corners without the need of elbows. The internal diameter is more akin to that of the flexible rubber or plastic hoses.
@@johnmoncrieff3034 yes as a plumber i use a lot of microbore pipe and it is good but where the socket ends go would not be as solid as with the 15mm copper pipe so you would need supports for the legs
.
I've seen multiple articles that don't recommend plastic for compressed air, e.g. www.hoseandfittingsetc.com/our-blog/bid/94802/what-type-of-pipe-should-i-use-for-my-air-compressor
you got air leak in your lines mate. you have a nice workshop, get a hydrovane hv02 for life.
Thanks but Cheap was the key
all that for 2 tools and a tyre pump
?
We all must start somewhere
@@dmgladden Hi yes of course … sorry , great video i was hoping i could run sanders and saws etc … all new to me but mainly interested in paint spraying as been using aerosols for some painted furniture… i may get one , thanks for the info .
The way you throw down your cheap tools makes me squirm every time
Hi Lee if the tool has a honed edge (plain, chisel ect) than i treat with great care the rest should cope with it
Now! Now! Now! A proper Lancashire lad working with air tools. What is the world coming to?
Sorry Yorkshire
I got the the same compressor and it nearly kill us good show but
Thanks D & S, maybe that's the real reason for keeping it outside lol
Do you have to drain the tank after every use??
No thank god but i know you do with the big ones
@@dmgladden i only ask as i have a 24ltr like yours & i only use it every now & then. Someone told me i have to drain the tank after i finish using it after every use.
@@tyler4164 if you mean of air then i guess so but it will leak out anyway if you leave it connected to something but that's normal
@@lezbriddon i will do that and see but no i haven't been so thanks for the tip
I know where one retired porn star ended up.
I haven't got her
sounds like there is a leak in the system somwhere
Yes cheap pipe connectors
