subject: New Air Compressor.

I spent yesterday afternoon playing with my new Huskey (which is really a
Compbell Hausfeld) 30 gallon air compressor.  It is belt driven and not
overly noise.  Filled the entire tank to 130 pounds in around 10 minutes.

I was filling up various balls, tires, and anything else I could test it
out on.  I plan to pickup a kit that has 4 of them most used tools so that
I can start using it with my sockets, etc.  

Right off the bat I have something to fix.  The shelves in my garage are
falling off the wall (a few lag bolts snapped).  Will be using it to fix
that to start with.

I am considering two different routes with the electric..  I have two
garage doors with outlets on the ceiling.  I need to find out of they are
on the same wire as the fridge in the garage.  I could use one of those.

If not, was also considering bumping up my 20 amp circuit breaker to a 30
amp. I know that isn't to spec, since the wire is probably not rated for
that, but I am going to check.

When I was using it, I had an extension cord going to the front of the
house's outside outlet.  Seemed to work fine on that one for now.
