I don't know if someone already mentioned it, but 220v power and 3/4" PVC
for shop air are the things I wish I had.


For about the 9 millionth time, PVC is not safe for shop air, and I
really don't care how many of you are using it and "never had a
problem". The stuff shatters, it is not suitable for pressurized gas
service, and it has injured and/or killed people. This pretty well
covers it:

Use copper, iron, or a plastic pipe which is actually approved for air
service.
