@ psacustomcreations - you got it sir. PM me if you have a co$t band you are looking to invest.
 





Sioux makes excellent air tools but not all of them are made in USA. I buy Milton air fittings and Goodyear air hoses both made in USA. I won't buy a Mexican made Lincoln welder even if it was %50 less than a Miller or Hobart. Most of my welding equipment is vintage anyway but I have 2 Lincoln Invertec welders with the best arc quality on the planet.

It matters to me where my tools are made. MAGA! If we don't buy American made products we are contributing to our own demise as a country. I know it's almost impossible to find things that are made in the US but I always check. Even the small things like air fittings.

@ 69sa200 - nice Sioux. Like the fine wire cup you have integrated. Just gave me an idea.

We run a 2x Sioux aircraft rivet gun and a sweet Sioux air drill. Both Made in USA. Very high quality, smooth operation, and strong.

Kai,
Once you get a shear, can you let me know which one and how it performs? I want my work to purchase one but need some reviews or guidance on a good model. Thanks
Kett P-540 Pneumatic Double Cut Shear. Enroute. Scored a nice deal on Amazon. PM me if you want to test run her or use the shears on a project. She's claimed solid up to 14ga MS and 16ga in SS.

Our Kett P-540 arrived today. HeavyDuty and smooth operator, Sade style. Rip curl'd 16ga mild steel like a dream. Images of the tool and TIG'n the curl to 16ga sheet metal. The DynaSwivel was gifted to us from Dynabrade. :cool:

Hit me if you want to borrow her for your builds.

New air weps from Dotco. We were blessed to acquire this entire lot from an industry partner of ours back in Mar for $125. All fully operational. Time to grind.
