Are air tools a meme for the home mechanic?

The best is rusted or tough bolts, that hammer action. Second best is air ratchet in tight spots.

Also any decent cordless will have a battery life of at least 4 hours unless you are putting 75mm bugle screws into hardwood or something ridiculous

> not having a garage
> not plumbing garage with air lines
> not having a hundred foot spool at the door for when your buddy brings his junk to your driveway

I'm kidding. I don't have any buddies.

>meters
Found your problem right there, yuropoor.

>for diy'ers
of course for tradesmen and people who need power tools on site, cordless tools make sense. and i'm sure for these people it also makes sense to upgrade every few years and get replacement batteries regularly. but for hobbyists such as myself it doesn't make sense

Cordless impact wrench is only useful if you spend a lot of time at the junkyard. Otherwise you're better off spending that money on an air tool. Impact driver can be useful for stuff around the house, though.

Dude 25ft of hose and a mobile 30gallon air compressor will suffice.

What if I told you I was an American who refuses to use inferior units of measurement?

I'd say you're a liar.
