I am looking at purchasing an air compressor for multiple purposes.
I want to be able to use it for working on my cars using Air ratchet, impact gun, air hammer etc.
I also however want to be able to use a nail gun with it for building projects (building small buildings, roofing etc.)
I have gone to sears and am looking at two air compressors, however I am not sure what the difference is.
Here are the two I am looking at.
This first one states that it has a cut in and cut out pressure. As soon as it drops to 115 psi the compressor kicks in. The other compressor does not state at what PSI it cuts in.
This compressor is 30 Gal with 5hp for $399.00

This compressor is 33 Gal with 6hp AND comes with 3 air tools and is $299.88
This one sounds like the better deal at face value, but it is $100.00 cheaper. There must be something going on as to why the other one is more expensive,
Here is the next one

And also, I am wanting to get a nail gun type device, but I want to be able to use it for framing, building fences etc.
But I also want to use it for a roofing project I am going to do this summer (replace my roof myself)
So far, it is looking like a roofing nailer and a framing nailer are two totally different nailers, the most important issue is controlling the depth of the nail for doing roofing.
Are there any nailers out there that can perform both jobs I want? Or is that just the bottom line.. you need two different kinds of nailers?
Any input would greatly be appreciated..
Thanks
Ron
