Thanks, Gary.

Yeah, I was a little confused about the Percival, because it looks like it has a long shaft attached in the picture. I’ll figure it out though. It looks like a handy tool to have and I’ve really enjoyed using the Lancelot so far. As far as air tools go, I have a 13 gallon compressor, and it’s just not quite enough for the work I’m doing. That’s why I’d recommend electric unless someone can afford a large compressor, maybe 5 hp with a large tank. The 13 gallon runs low when I’m sanding or grinding, then I have to wait for it to catch up. I’m going to buy a 11 gallon reserve tank and put it in-line to improve the capacity, but the motor hp will still be a bit low for my needs. A friend gave me the compressor and air tools gratis, so I can’t complain too much. Mahalo again.
