   I guess I should have mentioned that a normal filler "chuck" on the end of   
   your compressor hose wouldn't work because it requires the center schrader   
   valve to exist in order to compress its center pin for air to flow through.   
      
   Everyone I know who does this makes their own fitting instantly and easily   
   by twisting onto that open valve stem a fitting which almost every airgun   
   has already because it has threads to fit a variety of nozzles and stems.

   It's not at all asking anything like that as far as the question was aimed.   
      
   It only sounds that way to you because you've probably never changed a tire   
   yourself (and that's fine - but you can't answer the question for me).   
      
   It's more like asking whether you find a 12 inch bolt cutter to work better   
   over the next 30 years of anticipated needs than a 24 inch bolt cutter   
   versus a 50 inch bolt cutter, given you're only going to buy one in your   
   whole life and you have to store it but you want to anticipate future uses   
   too.   
      
   Personally, I wish I had bought a larger bolt cutter - but I only want one.   
   The only people who can answer it are those who very often do the task.   
      
   I was hoping to find one other person on here who uses the bead blasters.
