have just a few air tools

i like them and they are all lighter than their electric analogue

but the air hose is almost like torture
well it falls in the same category of dropping a small part and having
it always land where it is not clearly visible

a continual annoyance might be the better description

but now i see that there is a hose that claims to not coil and catch
and annoy and behaves more like a good power cord


anyone tried one



I've used air for decades, and the only ones that "coil and pinch" are
tghe cheap crappy "coil up" type. There are high quality coil-up hoses
but they are not cheap. Cheap coil-up hoses have a lifespan in normal
use from 5 minutes to a couple months.
