1. I bought a new small air compressor (Husky brand) from Home Depot
for my home use. I just need something for light duty, and this was
technically a Christmas present from my wife. I don't know which type
of air connector it needs. It comes with a female fitting and from the
appearance it must need a short male fitting, contrary to my experience
in my father's shop where he had all long fittings.
2. For light duty home use, does it matter which type of hose I use? I
see hoses for sale made from PVC, rubber, and polyurethane. I gather
that PVC is stiffer, or maybe just stiffer in cold weather. I'm on a
tight budget so I don't want to buy more than I really need.
