This may sound like heresy, but let me suggest the following:

Go to someplace like Home Depot and buy the lowest cost 3/8" x 50 ft air
hose on the shelf.

Yes, 50 ft is not a typo.

BTW, If you spend $15.00, you spent too much.

After using that hose for 6 months, you will have some very definite
opinions about what kind of air hose works best for you.


That's right, Lew, and once you have bought one, you'll NEVER again
buy another cheapass hose. They don't lay down, won't roll up, and are
stiffer than a puritan woman on her wedding night. DAMHIKT.

I suspect I am more familiar with this topic than you are -- and I had
_no_ problem whatsoever.

you used puritan oil instead of mazola?
