Any suggestions on air hoses that might be better than others?  I had a 50' Michelin branded one that I bought from Sam's about 8 years ago that has dry rotted and developed a leak in the line - I patched it with duct tape and it promptly sprung another.  So, I tossed it.  Interestingly, when I connected my sears 25' one, it had no leaks at all around the fittings.  Loved it, but it is too short.  Going to see how much sears sells the better ones for, but I'm sure they are all chinese made junk.

I recently bought a Flexzilla air hose. I like it. Very flexible and looks well built. Might be worth your look.

 

I also bought U.S. made Goodyear hose from Amazon. It may not be as trick, but it seems well made and Amazon had a good price on it.
