You guys talked me into Milwaukee, so here we go

That's comparable to a York from setup to take down filing 35s 8psi to 25psi.

I like the Milwaukee. It’s not the fastest, it’s kinda loud, and the poor thing is HOT after four tires, but it’s hard to beat it for ease of use. Set it and forget it till it’s time to move

As much as I like my York, I would not build a second one and I'm reluctant to recommend one due to the cost and complexity. There are enough good comparable options these days that are easier to deal with.

It’s also nice that it makes me bring a spare battery or two…in case I forget to charge one on the impact for instance…

does anyone have experience with the Milwaukee Bandfile? do you like, work as needed? would recommend?

Milwaukee Bandfile

I have a pneumatic band file...Its not something you use all the time, but when you need it, its nice to have. A good, coarse belt will grind the head off a bolt pretty quickly. Nice if you cant get anything else in there. Works well for spot welds too (though not as good as a rotobroach) I would imagine the Milwaukee version is as good as the rest of their tools.
