Air compressor in Systainer?

[harry_]

Is there such a thing as a retractable cord reel that has a retractable male end?

Yes, and you could probably find one on the wife's vacuum cleaner, although I doubt the gauge would be heavy enough.

As for swapping the ends, I doubt the reel would know the difference or even care.

I asked the same questions some time ago.  This is the settup i really liked, no fuss.

Are you thinking of this?  It's a 1 hp Senco.  I just cut off the handle.  I holds a 15 ga., 18 ga., and 23 ga pinner.  50ft of hose, the compressor, and I took the attic lid from my t 15 sys 2 and put it on this sys 5 for nails.  Completely self contained.  I think the thread started out about the attic lid on the drill sys 2's.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but I was wondering if anyone had gotten their Senco PC1010 into a T loc sys V.  Have both the systainer and the compressor, but am worried that the new shape of the T Loc is going to cause a problem. Angle grinder on standby waiting for a green light.

Playing devil's advocate here:
A PC1010 fits great on TOP of one of my rolling systainer stacks, the rubber feet keep it from sliding, and the dB level is quieter than any other power tool I own.  What's the advantage of deconstructing it to put it inside a $80 dollar box?  [scratch chin]

Btw, I do use a Sys-IV (labeled FASTENING) for all my guns, hose, blower nozzle, caulk gun, and hot melt.

Joseph,

I dont have the PC1010. But for me a Sys-compressor is all about packing the truck!

Compressor, 16,18,21 ga nailers and air hose in one package.  Stacked with more tools it cuts down on at least a single trip, maybe two.

I can tell you that after playing with Seth Semenzas Nail gun/Co2 Sys 4 set up that i am gonna buy a CO2 set up from Lowes for $90, two tanks $60 and a Sys 2 $68 and pair that with a PC pancake, soon to be a Rolair JC10. That way i can just use whats easier and im not taking up a lot more space in the box van. Oh yeah Seth is one cool dude too. Eric

from my time as a paintballer i'd bet the co2 setup is going to put much more stress on your guns internals. co2 is a cold liquid that turns to gas and where compressed air is just air. i remember toasting so many o rings just screwing the tanks on and off from the flash freeze.

people have been using c02 for a while with finish guns so it can't be a big issue.

 

[ericbuggeln]

Seth did mention to buy extra O rings. Im sick of carrying a compressor up stairs for a few shots, Eric

New Senco guns? (too expensive this side of the pond to try)

Hi there

Im also thinking of doing this kind of thing but I have got a small stanley compressor from screw fix
I would love to try and fit this into a systainer but I think it maybe to wide

So I may need a senco one aswell
