I have worked with Tom' and Dave's shaft extractors (every one that comes out I experiment with) and I've mentioned this before - the design flaw in using a drill press vise or any other vise is the following. All vises have one stationary jaw and one moveable jaw. The moveable jaw is designed

Tom I was referring to the tire compressors that usually cost less then $20! I burnt out one of those.For $39.99 (on sale) there is a Harbor Freight 3 gallon pancake compressor that will do the job right. Yes, it is oiless which I speak against but it will suffice for less than daily

Mine is a 5 gallon, 2 piston affair that I've had since about 1968 or so. I like the Sears inflator when my car's outside and I need to pump up a tire. I can't move that big-ass compressor out of the garage easily (my garage is my workshop since I sold out the business in '98). I kinda miss the
