Y'all have one of these when you were a kid? I wore mine out.

Sick bday gift. I’m jealous of that work bench too. I’m afraid I don’t see a cold beer anywhere though.

crap out of it for 15 years. It still works, but is loud AF and smelled like an electrical fire.
I literally sucked out my septic tank with it. That's the duty cycle I put that thing through.
Plus I used it as a dust collecter for a 3HP Delta Unisaw.
Replaced it with that Rigid model. Almost instantly, one of the latches for the top went missing. Plus one of the hose ends is a little janky.
It works good, but not great.

Mine replaced a old Harbor Freight deal in which the hose broke. I couldn't find replacement parts for it. Maybe Harbor Freight doesn't play that game.

Tires last about 2-3 weeks, then it's expensive to replace them.

That lasted for about two tire changes and then dad was done. It's collecting dust.
I did notice while visiting Clemson's over-populated campus recently, the electric version middle son has now are EVERYWHERE. They have replaced bikes on campus it seems. Oldest son may be using middle son's electric scooter in a few years. Never thought of that as an investment.

I've become an expert tire changer on bikes. Oldest son learned, if he skids out 500 times and loses his tire, dad will take his time, weeks, ordering a new one and getting it on the bike. He now knows to not destroy the tires. Middle son, gave him the same speech. Several weeks wait for new tires, put them on and he ignored me. Replaced them one more time, and done.
Anyway....
