Win. Win.

Prior to my air conditioning work, I'd never used one. Some day I hope to be reputable though!

You're getting there.

I guess it all depends on how much space you have, how many DIY projects a person plans on. For me, I get by with an air tank with a air nozzle on the end. I mainly use it for when I change spark plugs etc. It's very handy for me as I'm lucky enough to have a store down the road that has free air.

For me, though I do want one, a full size compressor just isn't practical for me... yet.

I noticed yesterday that Canadian tire has a cute little compressor on sale. An oiless pump with a 2 gal(U.S.) tank and an air hose. It would be ideal for smaller jobs and all for $40 Can.
