I'm glad to see Porter Cable is still making tools in the US.tireatr;224586 wrote: Go to Home Depot and get a Porter Cable model C2005 for $109. We make then at our plant in Jackson TN. very reliable unit, 6 gallon Pancake with a few basic accessories. If you were closer I'd score you a deal, but shipping would eat into the savings.
At the track, I just use one of those portable air tanks, a.k.a. the "air pig". You can get them at places like Home Depot for around 40 bucks. http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-202958910/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053Buckeye96;224676 wrote: So what do you guys use to fill tires?
As long as the bead is set on the tire I've inflated completely flat tires with a bicycle pump. The pump has been way handier (and easier to store) than my 5 gallon air tank.Buckeye96;224676 wrote: So what do you guys use to fill tires?
Hmm, good point. If you're changing tires, I don't think the air tank will set the bead. It might have enough air to fill one completely flat tire. The max psi on it is 100-120, and of course once it gets used down to about 30, or whatever your tire pressure is at, it's done.some guy #2;224685 wrote: As long as the bead is set on the tire I've inflated completely flat tires with a bicycle pump.
