140 PSI makes for a superb potato gun. =)

Using a scuba tank as air supply for tools is fine but make certain that the regulator is putting out the right pressure for the tool.
My nail guns like 90 psi and they are rather harsh running on 125.
If I were using a tank to power them I would adjust the intermediate pressure for them.

all the above seems lot very good info and a great response I am not completely stuiped (no matter what my X says) I know I can't use a "garage compresor" to fill tanks with. I have three compresors and forgive me but there still packed away in Ga and I don't remeber name brands or exact pressures one is a large "garage type" , one is a small Hp elec , one is a Large two cyl air steel air tank with elec motor. The small one I can run 3 guns and runs off small generator the larger one I run three guns 16 penny nails but requires a 8000watt gen. I have had the large one for who nows how many years and never put a drop of oil in it (its proablly older then I am) and the small one I never added any oil in the last two-three years The Garage one I add oil Regular
maybe I will have all that down here in a few weeks and will write down all the specs and re-ask this
