Tools Carvers Use - Tiki Carving

I'm slowly upgrading my tools, but have to sell more tikis to do it. Thanks, Aloha. I figured out that "catching up" thing with the air comp. pretty quick, especially when using the die grinder. For now a cheap solution will be to pick up a 13 gallon reserve tank (about $30) & just connect it downstream of the compressor. Same problem, but it just takes longer to run out after the initial air charge. Long term, I'd like to pick up a larger HP/receiver tank model, but your talkin' a few bucks there. I will definitely NOT be buying any air sanders, because this comp. just won't hack it for that kind of use. Thanks for the advice.
