Thanks for the *much needed* OpeningVid demo. Taught me to bring bravery building!

[@alfred1931]

Thanks for this! I bought the same compressor and have never used one before.

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

I'm happy I could help! I hope it works as well for you as it has for me!

[@andyprairiedog4829]

DUDE!!! I got this exact combo because of your video and the air compressor has been used at regulator setting of 110psi to power a framing nailer (21-degree) to complete a 12x8 shed for a sandrail vehicle. As I was the only one using the nailer, it kept up with me during the framing process, activate when needed and I kept nailing with no notable power loss. I got this smaller compressor because lifting Dewalt's 25-gallon belt driven compressor onto the back of a truck's tailgate was getting dangerous. I'm 42 and can't lift that thing as easily any more. I have not tried the brad nailer yet and am more familiar with 16ga brad nailers...have not tried an 18ga nailer yet. Looks promising. Thanks again for this video, subbed and liked...forget the haters.

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

Woah, this is a prime comment. Thank you so much for the love! It's inspiring and I'm so happy that it helped!

[@klaymoon1]

Great combo!

[@michaeladrada3930]

What kind of coupler/fitting did you use to connect the hose to the nailer? Thanks.

[@brandonejem8620]

It's a standard quick release fitting. You can find a kit at walmart if one is near you.

[@robert_costello]

Thanks for the vid, man. I just got the same one. Hope it’ll come in handy as a tool on my garage.

[@Alex_science]

This machine does not use oil. You can damage the tool if you put oil on it.

[@tahlularose9267]

Compressor is oiless, not the tool.

[@suzieji2794]

What is the thing you used to release the air pressure? Is that included in the kit or where can I buy it?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

It's just an air nozzle, it wasn't included in the kit. I just bought mine from a set in Walmart. Or you could order one from this affiliate link here amzn.to/3jAHZHZ , be aware that I might get a small commission if you use the link but it wont cost you any extra!

[@abrahammateo4540]

Hahaha 🤣 he said “about 6ft hose” smh… it’s more like 3x that length

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

Absolutely accurate, it's a 25' hose. I should've looked at the box lol!

[@bobbyjuice3935]

I have same setup, my nailer stopped shooting 1 1/2" nails but I can shoot 1" no problem. Have you had any issues?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

I haven't had any jamming issues, my longer nails don't always drive straight but I'm not sure why yet.

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

If you can determine that there are no obstructions inside the nailer, I'd rma it for a new one.

[@bobbyjuice3935]

@@ejemsworkshopofeverything Yes mine never jammed, its clear. I am going to get a new one. Thanks

[@mariacampos-xm2ne]

How long did it tok your compressor to turn back on?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

It depends on the funtion, with an air nozzle, it lasts about a minute. But with a brad nailer it takes about 3 or 4 clips before kicking on.

[@jasmynechester6233]

How long did it take to fill up? Does it get quiet when it is filled?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

Around 5 minutes to fill, the volume is loud until it's full. If you're just using the brad nailer it'll go for a while before kicking back on. But constant use tools like a sander or air nozzle will run it down quickly and you might want to consider a larger one. After having it for over a year, it's been a great thing to have!

[@1AFVeteran]

25' hose. It's on the box.

[@vamp1r1sm45]

Hey ejem it’s your buddy Justin. Yes that Justin. Keep it up man. You got this

[@phov414]

can’t hear with the music playing in the background

[@Joenoblocks]

Left is tight on that valve it screws out to seal

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

Thanks for the tip. I should make an update video, it's been a great compressor over the last year and a half!

[@pawa2511]

Quick question, so it’s loud at the beginning then gets quiet or how does that work?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

I didn't mean to confuse you, the loud portion is unedited audio to help you be aware of the volume of the compressor. When it gets quite, I turned the audio down during editing to make it easier to listen to. It takes about 5 minutes to fill up and the compressor is loud for the entire duration.

[@mikeganard6751]

How do you like the compressor so far?

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

I intended to make a one-year update video on it but life's pretty busy at the moment. I love this compressor and I use it almost daily. It's great for using the brad nailer, although I wish I bought a bigger capacity to use with the air nozzle. The air compressor keeps up with my air nozzle use but it having to kick back on regularly disrupted my twitch streams lol. The only other con is the placement of the drain nozzle for me. To drain it, you have to tilt it and that annoyed me but it makes sense because the point is to avoid rust near the drain port. Other than that, I close the port, turn it on in the morning, then have to remember to drain it before I leave the shop. Thanks for the question!

[@mikeganard6751]

@@ejemsworkshopofeverything thanks for the replay! I ended up just getting the same kit the other day. Have t had a chance to use it yet but for $179 figured I could t beat it.

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

@@mikeganard6751 Nice! I hope you like it as much as I do mine!

[@angelf9800]

Can this air Compressor remove a tire

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

I imagine it could but I don't have an impact wrench to try it out. I recommend a good breaker bar and socket for that.

[@ysosirius2886]

sound needs work and voice when turning your head away from mic but great approach and thank you

[@MichaelBlast]

If the hose is only 6' then they went cheap, it used to come w a 50' awhile ago

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

It wasn't 6', it reaches across my shop, It's 25'. It's a good quality hose and doesn't tangle easily. I'm really happy with it.

[@mortenjavnes3383]

That gun is oil free! Not supposed to use it...

[@ejemsworkshopofeverything]

Thanks for the tip! I never did buy any oil for it anyways lol.

[@KulandhaivelKandasamy]

Yes. it's Oil-free!.

Turn off the music off please.

Turn off the music. Very annoying.

stop playing with your dad's tools Grow up and cut your hair

Thanks for your input! I purchased all these tools myself, and I cut my hair about once every two years and donate it to a program that turns it into wigs for cancer patients.
