Note to self.
When finished scribing a circle on a block of wood, do NOT drop the dividers point first on to the air hose.

What is that hissssssssssssing sound.:eek:

Duh!...:o Wanted one new hose.

Least I will get a better hose than that thin curly plastic thing.:)

And those curly air hoses need to be shot with a ball of ones own s..t, they are the most useless creation I have ever encountered, as you have obviously found out:D

Wanted to buy:
One curly air hose with additional outlet.

PM me if you can help out.

Please explain. As someone used to say.

I managed to make a small hole about a metre from the outlet end.

Went out and bought a 30 metre proper hose and some fittings.

Wait till the wife finds the expense on the card account.:rolleyes:
Any one got plans for a doghouse.

Sorry DavidG .... it was a little attempt at humor .... an air hose with an additional outlet (hole) really isn't that much use.

Duh! Me a bit slow.:o
I thought you had an idea and needed a curly air line to be split somehow.
Was thinking of how to send it to you.

I have tried some hot glue but don't tell the wife.
Need the excuse for the new hose.;)

For safety's sake, ditch the damaged hose.

I bought 30m of new hose the other day and cut off three 3m lengths to replace the curly ones I had. I don't miss the curlies at all and get better delivery to the tool to boot.

New hose is better, but for a few dollars you can buy a air hose joiner kit from Bunnings.

I went a slightly different route... I bought some decent hose and ran it along all my DC ducting, with tees at the wyes & outlets somewhere near the gates.

Still use my curlies on the tool end, mainly 'cos they're easier to carry from outlet to outlet. A few extra pennies, but I reckon it's worth it... no more tripping over trailing hoses! :)
