Bill - I you still on the hunt to buy equipment before you actually even
start using anything? You're going to end up with a cool shop worth of

I'm learning. Look what John taught me with his post! And I learned
quite a bit about air compressors, and their
substitutes such as electric paint sprayers, last week! I'm sure if you
lived next door and could provide me with your instruction
that I would be further along. And I could maybe borrow your tools! ; )
