I have a compressor which I guess is very similar to the picture. It is
OK for spraying paint but cannot supply the flow for air tools. If you
are wanting to use a windy drill, air chisel etc. then a unit with the
size of reservoir pictured will be no good IMHO.

Mebbe you have a smaller tank ;-), B&Q were doing one with a 6l
receiver , yup a jumbo size bottle of coke with a pump on top for more
money plus more cash for the accesory pack and those damnable self
knotting curly hoses.

Aldi one is 25l will run all the tools its sold alongside,air chisel,
stapler etc aint really big air users, windy gun is ,so frequent
starting from pump, sanders are a no go hence they dont sell them.
They have come around annualy for last few years so plenty of reviews
in archives.
