Running Air Lines In a home garage

[Javier1234]

Currently I'm working with the HFT manual hose reel. I'm debating updating my current rig. What is everyone else doing to run air lines? I have a 20 gal old school craftsman with an axillary tank.

I am using a 50 foot auto rewind hose reel by Tekton and have been very happy with it for the year+ I have been using it. My garage is 25x25 (id) and it gets everywhere I need it to. Mine is mounted in the front corner by the door so if I am working on something in the driveway it can be used out there also. Learned that lesson when I had my old one mounted on the back wall and it was always a pain the ass to pull the hose out between the cars and through the entire garage out into the driveway.

I have seen some pretty nifty set ups in Youtube videos of guys either running a regular air hose through the garage rafters and setting up a connection point on the other side of their garage or actually piping in another spot.

The 50 foot auto rewind is plenty for my needs though.

It is very nice to have a hose reel in the garage.   I miss it at times in my garage now.  Been using more cordless tools recently, so its hard to spend a bunch on setting up air lines at this point for me.

I am using a 50 foot HF auto rewind too. LOVE IT. Had to replace the hose once.
