Air tools:
HVLP Sprayer (Harbor Freight - HF)
Air Saw - HF

Two 6" air sanders - palm style Ingersoll Rand

A lot of my tools have been purchased at Harbor Frieght only after seeing favorable recommendations on the 'net that they weren’t junk. The money saved can be pretty impressive if you only plan on using a tool for an occasional odd project. Numerous other items I’ve gotten off of ebay for excellent savings (Vacuum pump, vacuum oil, air sanders, etc).
