I used air for everything up until 10 or 15 years ago. The old electric tools got hot and had to have a physical ground. But electric tools are much better now than they were 40 years ago. We still have a lot of air tools, but we use electric tools a lot more than air now. An air hose is clumsy and it is noisy with big compressors running all the time. Inline oilers seem to break prematurely. We just squirt a little air tool oil in them. As for electric, I buy Metabo and Fein. They are made in Germany and are not the Chinese junk out old name brands have went to.
