I keep being tempted by this package, but haven't given in yet.
Is that compressor powerful enough to run one framing nailer?

Most definately. When I need portability, I can fill up a 5-gallon
tank ($20 at WalMart) and bring that to the work site. That's enough
to drive a couple dozen nails. Nailers need very little capacity. I
would not buy a small-tank compressor, though your needs may be
different.


Low end -- daydreaming and Norm wanabe projects. I'm still messing
with cheap plywood. At least I will be soon, now that the garage
is back above freezing.

But I also have a basement room to finish and being able to use a
nailer will justify the purchase when the time comes.
