Although these aren't guitar building tools, I know there are enough folks around here with a garage full of tools to appreciate it.
I just scored an Emglo twin tank air compressor and a Hitachi framing gun for $100 on Craigslist. I'm loving it.
I'm a carpenter, and I've been needing a compressor and gun for work for a long time, but never could fork out the $469 for the Hitachi combo kit at Home Depot. The stuff I bought is a little worn, but still working just fine...and about $400 cheaper.
Believe it or not, I'm actually looking forward to going to work tomorrow to play with my new tools...that excitement should wear off by about 8 am.

You'll love that compressor.
