Terrific Combo

Craftsman Brad/Finish/Stapler Compressor Combo Kit with 6 Gal. Compressor — 

For the money, you simply cannot beat this combo kit. It comes with everything you need to get started...even the staples, brads, and finish nails. The compressor is significantly more powerful than I thought. You can drive finish nails (the tool that requires the largest amount of air) all day long - even when the compressor is filling. You will run through an entire magazine of nails before it fails to provide enough air to countersink them (even in bounce mode). I was also skeptical of the 1/4" in. hose. Most air tools use 3/8th inch hoses. But, considering all tanks connect with 1/4" adapters, regardless of size, you would still have the bottleneck on at least one end. Thus, the 1/4" is perfectly fine. My only gripe is the depth adjustment dial on each of the tools. It seems to move much too easily, possibly changing the depth as you are using the tool. NOTE: Remember to follow the break-in instructions for the compressor. Failure to do this will result in damage. Also remember to drain moisture from the compressor after each use to prevent rust. I have yet to attach a framing nailer to this compressor. I would estimate it's capable of handling the tool just fine. Once tested, I will update this review.
