I want to add a retractable air hose reel in my shop, so I can have air out in the driveway and other places, without wrestling with the 100' hose I have now. I don't need 100', 75 or even 50 would b

I have a 150' reel of rubber hose. It never tangles or freezes. The reel doesn't have a name on it, but it came from a rescue vehicle supply house. It wasn't cheap, but it doesn't leak. I think a bet

David... I agree with Eric... I've got two... one commercial unit from a fire hose company and one from Harbor freight... neither leak but the hoses do... I put a ball valve before each and a drain s

My 'shop' is really a 2.5 car attached garage, and I have the compressor in a shed outside. Copper line runs into the garage on the rear wall, right by the entry/exit stairs to the house. There's a b

I have two of the Harbor Freight hose reels. So far so good, one's been in regular use for 8+ years, the other 6+. Considerations: the rubber hose is okay, not great. When the hose started to crack a

Just FYI relative to that: I use whip hoses on the air tools, I buy the long (30in I think) hoses and cut them in half, then put a barbed fitting and a couple Oetikers in the cut halves, works out c

Hey guys, These work well if you don't mind hand cranking them. They don't leak, made in the US and should last a lifetime. Replacement parts are available: http://www.mcmaster.com/#hose-reels/=vyfqv

I agree with David that we *should* be able to make fittings that don't leak any more, but after I spent forever trying to have a leak free system, I gave up and just put ball valves everywhere too.

You might want to tell him to rip that pipe out, while you are there. It is lethal when it blows, which it will do, eventually. I'd wear a helmet when I visit, if I were you. "Dear Mr. Cannova: In re

I'm torn on this subject. On the one hand, yes, why would you ever use PVC when you could use anything else, and I've heard of PVC grenade-ing with awful results. On the other, I've had a compressed
