Focus Home

Carry them here and carry them there, portable air compressors can be carried and used anywhere. So I told my friend, Sam, one day. And he said to me, “Anywhere? That I would like to see. I am sure I can find a place that cannot be.” So I took the challenge and asked him where he would like to see me work my air compressor.

“Well,” he said, “some places are obvious for good portable air compressors to roam, so let’s start there, somewhere easy such as your home.”

As he said, that was easy peasy, lemon squeezy. I use my air compressor around my home all the time. I used it with my my nailer to put up a fence and to lay the baseboards around our new kitchen flooring (and the cutting tool to trim the floorboards I was laying). I used the caulking gun to recaulk the tub, and a sander to bring new life to an old side table. Oh, and after I built that fence, my friend and I used our portable air compressors with spray guns to apply the finish. One of these around the house is a must, not a wish!

“O.K., he said, I knew that was easy, but would you, could you, use it in a zoo?”

A zoo? That really isn’t that hard either. Let’s pretend to be a zoo keeper and see what can be done. Let’s take a group of portable air compressors and each use a grease gun to grease all the cage doors. No more squeaks to annoy the caretakers or irritate the animals galore! And being portable, I just carry my compressor from cage to cage. While at each cage, besides greasing the doors, I can use my grinder to remove any rust from the bars. I know that other uses are there to, but my point is proven that it is of use here too.
