    Deadish Compressor

    That is pure scaremongering. In the OP's case, the unloader valve has gone. Easy enough to source a replacement.

    How would you make this oilstone box lid with hand tools?

    I made one of those under the guidance of my best mate who was/is a highly skilled restoration carpenter. We decided to split it in half. I did the top and he did the bottom. I was told to use hand tools and took me hours. He just threw it onto a mortice machine and did it in five minutes!

    Replacement compressor

    25l is nowhere near enough to run an air sander, They are very air hungry. 50l with a good cfm will just about do it. The best seller where I work is the Airmaster Tiger 16/550. great bit of kit.

    Compressor Query?

    That sounds like a Machine Mart air master. The reason that we don't advise using an extension is because of the power surge on start up. At 3hp, you are near to the limit of the plug fuse, any extra load, will result in blowing fuses.

We used to have the complete range of attachments, but most have been lost in the midst of time. However, in one of my sheds. I have the very bench...
