Titanium stuff is nice if you have to use the gun every day as part of your job, for everyone else regualr metal is fine. Air chisel is nice to have, so are cut-off wheels and die grinders Don’t forget to get some tool oil and maybe some more air line (harbor freight has good deals on anicllary stuff, like hose, reels, fittings etc.) ---

i have to see what i can get a good wrench for… i may not use it everyday, but i want the damn thing to last forever. i do not like buying a tool twice.
