Aldi have a nice little compressor complete with tools for 60 quid. A lad i work with has bought one. They are excellent value and quality.

Be quick though.

aye, there was a thread about it - im off for one now! The leeds place has 56 compressors in, so they should last a few days at least.

I wouldn't hang about if I were you! My local Aldi took 10 pallet loads, and when I was there at lunchtime there were crowds of guys buying compressors, and no-one else in the shop! They also had a 1/2" air impact wrench for 20 quid. The staff said that they had been flying out of the door.

Picked up an impact wrench yesterday (already have a compressor), seems reasonable quality although I did need to get the pliers onto a c-clip on the end of the square drive as it was too splayed out and wouldnt allow you to put a socket on the end! I would also be a little suspicious of the "4CFM" rating too, it seems to stall quite easily once the pressure drops even a little bit (before the compressor recharges), so it seems you need a reasonable amount of high pressure air to run it.
