Actually, I agree too. I guess I just had tool envy because I only have one circular saw and Max has three. Ralph _ From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Max Robinson Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2006 12:37 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com

Wow I am so far behind but I am trying to catch up. A while back I had mentioned a service called Freecycle where you post things that you want to give away or ask for things you might need. well some one offered an air impact gun and I went and picked it up. I have not used it yet because I need

Robert, They are called Amflow fittings and there about three or four different types, take the female side of your amflow connecter with you when purchasing the male side to make certain you get the right one. Option two is to purchase a kit, this gives you several of the male fittings and

The fitting you are looking for is the male half of a quick connection fitting. These fitting are not all alike. If you have another tool that has the male fitting that fits into the female quick disconnect fitting, remove it from the tool and take it to your auto parts store and they will

Larry The female end is machine pressed on the hose and the end of the hose that connects to the air compressor I think does not have a quick connect. However I do have the piece that you would use to air up tires and it is the correct size for the quick connect on my air hose. So could I just

That would work. You can also remove the male connecter from a device you know fits. I don't have a lot of experience with air tools but I am not aware of a variety of fittings, they differ in size, quarter inch is usual for most tools but there are 3/8 fittings and probably bigger ones. Most

Well, I went out to the lawn mower house to look at my other saws. I have two line powered Black and Deckers one a 5 and 1/4 and the other a 7 and 1/4 inch. They both have the blade on the right. In the house I have a battery powered Ryobi which has the blade on the left. Go figure. Eating
