REFLECTOR: New velocity builder setting up shop.

[Gary Stull]

Oiless units are extremely loud, while 2 stage are much quieter. The 2 stage 
will be better at providing enough air for die grinders and drills, they 
consume a large amount of air. The inexpensive unit would be adequate to 
power your tools, but if it's in the same room that you're working in you'll 
probably want to wear ear plugs. As with everything it's a trade off. 
Cheaper initial price, but marginal capacity and much more noise. All 
depends on your preferences.
