On this episode of Cutting Corners with Jim and Jake, we’re taking on one of the loudest, and most annoying things in any shop, air guns. We’re testing a bunch of different models to see which one actually gets the job done without blowing out your eardrums.
From cheap Amazon specials to higher-end GuardAir guns, we’re putting them all through the wringer for noise, feel, and power. We’ll break down the decibel readings, talk about what those numbers really mean, and find out which air guns blow, literally and figuratively.
Now, this isn’t exactly a “scientific” test (we’re using a phone app and a healthy dose of shop logic), but you’ll get the point. Whether you’re running a full fab shop or wrenching in your garage and just want a quieter air gun, this one’s for you.
