I actually have a cordless inflator that I got at Aldi, back before I was a homeowner and went team Ryobi, and it works quite well, though obviously only rarely available because Aldi. Do you have a plug easily accessible where you'd fill up your tires? You can get plugin inflators relatively cheaply, certainly much more cheaply than a whole air compressor.

What about those pics doesn't inspire confidence about what's happening underground? depending on the service it'll cost hundreds of dollars. My neighbor got the sewer line done by rotorooter and it cost $625 for the guy to open the cleanout valve and run the rooter. granted they guarantee it for 6 months but still when my neighbor saw how easy it was he was kicking himself for not renting the rooter and doing it himself. raingutters is probably just leaf & debris buildup. i still think its worth a try to rent something, best case you clear it yourself, worst case you're out $50 and an afternoon and are calling the service anyways.

I do have a outlet nearby, so yeah. E: I looked at the prices, I'm just gonna order a cheap compressor, even a power supply for my portable compressor is a third of the price.

But considering a proper 30L low profile compressor is 120€ and 230V "inflators" cost around 50€ I just bit the bullet, I have been eyeing getting an air compressor for years anyway.

Just get a stand up bike pump. I got a $20 target one and it works well. I rarely use my Ryobi inflator for it since it's just a few pumps and the power inflators kind of struggle at higher pressure.

My Vair kept blowing my fuses left and right. It’s a bit more of a hassle but the ones with the alligator clips to your battery are much better IMO. Also, bunch of factory reconditioned Ryobi is on sale at DTO: https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/fp/726754 Shame the tiny grass trimmer comes with a battery. I could use that.

I have a little dealie I got at auto zone to fill a flat and it’s been kicking strong for years. Good to know about the possibility to clip to the battery

Bike pump is fine for bringing a slightly low tire up to spec, but takes forever to actually fill it by any amount.

One time my inflator battery had died and I really need to put some air in my car tire and holy poo poo that sucked doing with a hand pump. Obviously a motorcycle is lighter than a car, but heavier than a bike, and to get to a certain PSI it can actually be really difficult to do with a handpump, just the volume of air required, and how much force you need to put on the pump to get that much pressure into a big tire with the weight of the vehicle fighting against you.

It’s not a pressure thing, bike tires usually need higher pressure than a car. It just takes a much greater volume of air to change the pressure in a car tire so a much greater number of pumps.

Any knocks against the 40v Ryobi string trimmer? I thought I'd seen some love for it here. HD has it for a decent price, don't know if the lbjohnson grass will let me wait another week for Father's Day. edit- or if that $149 is still going to be their price in a week.

Just saw this in the basement of an estate sale. And yes, that little plastic bin has all sorts of bits and bobs that go with it. I don't know much about shopsmiths but I don't think this is a bad price, assuming it works:  Even has the bandsaw attachment on the other wall:  Really wish I could get it, but not really any place to put it in my garage, even after I do a big clean/reorganize. Plus I don't even know how I'd get it out of that basement...narrow corners and a turn at the base of the basement stairs, it was almost certainly assembled down there.

Slugworth posted:I've got the 18v one, and the worst thing I can say about it is that it doesn't have quite the oomph as my old gas Echo, but still plenty to get the job done. I imagine the 40v would solve that. The 40v doesn't appear to rotate and turn into an edger like the 18v though, that's a bummer. I've got the 18v and I agree it doesn't have the oomph to do sidewalks. It's so lightweight, I just use my 90° elbow rotation to do oomphless edging, so I'm hoping this thing will do likewise. Plus it's got bump technology. We'll see. The 40v is substantially heavier.

  I think the joke is that OP tried using a collet extender for regular routing operations. It failed under operating conditions. Resulting in a bent collet extender. --------- Spot on! I there was a moment there where everything actually seemed like it was gonna work, then I turned it on and this happened immediately. From here. I wasn't even aware collet extensions were a thing and can never imagine using one after seeing this.

Normally $135 for the pair, right now in the larger Ryobi sale it seems to be down to $99, which is the same price as a pair of 4AH batteries. $50 a pair would put it on the same level of $/Watt Hour as the $100 deal, but I suspect $60 is about as low as it's ever gonna get.

Not a Ryobi man, but I use my small tool batteries all the time. Sometimes I'm putting together furniture or mounting a picture or something, I don't need a big boy. Very handy and useful to have some smaller batteries for small jobs. It makes the tool much lighter and handier.
