I love supermarket shopping (Lidl)
« on: 02 June 2012, 21:19:47 »

An impulsive purchase at Lidls today. 50litre compressor. But they had run out of inspection cameras. Might have had a paty pickle in the isle!  :'( ... ;D

All put together and plugged in. Bigger v twin motor seems quieter than my previous 24 litre job. Just need some air line fittings now. Bloody bank holidays stopped play. :(

There appear to be a few different types of quick release fitting, non of the ones I have seem to fit anything particularly well.

PCL fittings from Machine Mart, don't buy Machine Marts own brand.

He has a PCL fitting on his air ratchet, but his windy gun is Euro.. well, when I borrowed it, anyway ;D Which reminds me to make up a Euro->PCL adapter as all my stuff is Euro, but everyone who turns up seems to have PCL..

Yeah I nicked the euro off the ratchet to fit the quick release on the compressor. But the thread on my airline doesn't fit the euro too well.  ???

Where as both euro and pcl fittings seem to fit whatever quick release is on the outlet end of the air line. Although the pcl bayonet seems a bit loose, it is air tight.

I'm unimpressed with my windy. Orgasmatron does a better job.
