Other than airbrushing, what else can I do with my new Air Compressor?

I just got myself a new toy enroute to my house:

Second one down..

other than airbrushing with it, what else can I do with that aircompressor?

Real Power tools.
And you can fill your tires with AIR

Wow, that compressor is tiny. All you need for airbrushing, I guess.

Dusting?

You could probably rig a contraption to shoot blowdarts.

Well there's little that that idea won't apply to.

Problem is CFM ... you got none in that toy to do anything more serious than spray a fine mist or inflate a bike tire...even a raft would take too long

 

[ntguyen]

what CFM does that unit have?

True.

Blow the dust out of your car/lawn mower's air filter to make it last longer. Inflate bike tires.

Dunno maybe 0.5...most good compressors have 15 or so @ 100PSI

NM...I thought we were talking about a big garage sized air compressor. Like the 25 gallon one I have in my garage.

 

[ntguyen]

but is that air compressor good for airbrushing?

sandblasting.

the b/b has a few of them in various sizes. they are really good at sandblasting.

yeah, you just don't put it up so high, and put a moisture trap in the line.

what are you airbrushing? cars? helmets?

I still have my old iwata somewhere. Haven't used it since illustrator came into its own.
