You bet but for this job it would have to be a compact unit and to get those 
with good power (gotta be 400+ lbs/ft) starts to turn into real money. I also 
don't really have a big enough compressor. I'd like to get a big 220v unit and 
mount it in the basement with air piped to the garage so the compressor would 
always be warm enough to use. SWMBO isn't really enamored if the idea.
