I have the 2 gallon, .5 HP Thomas Air Pac, and I love it. Very quiet. Not sure what is happening with the Thomas brand though. Did they give up on these products?

For finish work, I like a woodworker's marking knife. You can't get a cleaner, more accurate line.

I took the Lead training the other day. A lot of talk has been made about lack of enforcement. My understanding is that the EPA hopes these policy will be adopted by states and local municipalities. Wisconsin, for example, has already done this. I work in Minnesota and chances are this will become part of our state regulations also. I don't believe the EPA has the staff or resources to enforce this nationwide. Until states adopt it, they will respond to complaints, but not drive around looking for trouble.

Also, we have had to give homeowners the lead pamphlet for years now and we have always been liable for problems down the road. That part hasn't changed and isn't new.
