I've got that same 33 Gallon 6 hp Craftsman compressor. Err... it's ok but IMO not good enough to fit the bill. Noisy as hell and is oil-less which is part the reason why it's so noisy. (Oil-less ones are by nature) Cfm flow is also pathedic and spraying paint is a PITA.

I reccomend going to Home Depot and check out their selection. If you want to run high constant cfm air tools like cutoff wheels, DA's, air files, etc... I definately recommend seering clear of single stage compressors and getting a two stage and at least a 60 gallon tank. The old man's 60 gallon single stage compressor he had for almost 20 years did fine and had lotsa grunt but had a little bit of a tough time keeping up with constant cutoff wheel or DA usage. But by comparison, it really did a great job and we did paint alot of cars and used tons of air tools with it with little or no trouble at all. This is probably more ideal to what you'd be looking for in your usages and probably better in a tighter budget.

With his new 80 gallon two stage compressor, it provides all the air needed and rarely turns on, even when running the nuts outta the cutoff wheel or other similar too. I believe he paid $900 new for it a few years back at Home Depot. This may be a little more extreme than you really need. His new one is a Campus-Housfield (sp?) brand.

As far as brands go, prices usually dictate the quality. You buy cheap, you get cheap. Definately pay attention to the cfm ratings, cheap ones just don't flow.

Floor jacks- lotsa good brands out there. If you have a harbor Freigt tool dealer, they sell great stands and fair jacks at really reasonable prices. Again, you get what you pay for when dealing with floorjacks. I have a Harbor Freight 2.5 Ton and I really don't care for it, but it's not a bad unit. Big difference between the 2.5 and 3T jacks is their lift height too. Most 3T jacks lift just a little bit taller than the 2.5 T jacks and some tend to actually sit lower allowing better clearances under a lowered car. Also the more expensive jacks have less pumps to raise the saddle and less pumping to lift in most cases.
