HF is mostly junk, however my angle grinder bearings were fixed with the smooth band of a hose clamp  , and the other crap put in the circular file.
With welders, lathes, etc... only American.

I had a 60 gallon oil-less for years. I have changed my impacts over to electric. Milwaukee M18 has some great tools. I have a power tank regulator for some nailers that is very convenient but for air I went with a California Air 2010 without the auto drain and with the aluminum tank. This set up gives me quite a bit of flexibility and does not require a large footprint.
