Just saw this in a Sears ad and thought I’d pass it along.

Killer deal for $60!! Sale ends this Sunday.
That’s a hell of a deal!!! Sure beats those cheezy little “pulsing” hobby compressors they sell for 3 times that amount.
As long as you can regulate the “flow” of air from the tank that is exactly the thing a person needs for air brushing, set it to about 15-20 PSI and paint everything in sight!!!
I have one of those small compressors but I think it’s time for a spare.

Not to be a downer, but I read the reviews and it was mentioned that the unit was loud. There are alot of compressors for around $100 that are very quiet, so if you use your compressor indoors and noise is a issue for you, you may want to pass on this one. It is a good price for what you get, I didnt see if you get a inline filter or not, make sure you get one if not.
I got one of those just before Xmas last. They had them on sale then too. I use mine a lot and like it very much. The one thing I will say though by way of warning is to be careful what happens to your nail guns. They are made of cast metal and can crack and break if dropped. One of mine, naturally the one I use all the time, dropped about three feet onto a tile floor and broke off the stem for the air hose. I was all set to take it back, and they were okay about taking it back, but I didn’t actually have it on me when I was there asking the question. Afterwards, for the heck of it, I tried pulling the metal stem out of the broken casting and screwing it back in anyway. It worked and allowed me to keep working. So I never got around to taking it back 
But I just wanted to caution folks that the guns are cheap merchandise. They work pretty good but break easy. The compressor on the other hand has so far never given me any problem.

It appears to have a built in regulator. Wish I had the cash. I’d pick one up as a spare.
John-Maybe you could clarify. Newspaper says it’s a 2 gallon. Online ad says it’s a 3 gallon. Which is it?
Good Find. The sound shouldn’t matter too much since it wouldnt be on very much for air brushing.
I have one of them that I picked up at Menards last Christmas($60). They work great, but are really noisy! I still use my Badger for airbruch work, but have an adapter so I can use it if needed.

I have one. It works great but as it has been stated it is very loud. It has now been relegated to the garage for tire filling duty as I have gotten a new Used badger airbrush station. It is old and has a cabined around it and has a regulator and a water trap and fittings with shutoffs for 2 hoses. So quiet I forget it is on sometimes.

Hmm-- never looked. The tank is about the size of a basketball, though not completely round. I’ll go downstairs in a bit and look and see, then I’ll come back and update with the exact answer.
John
Oh yes, they are noisy. You can hardly hear yourself think when its going. Fortunately it does shut itself off when it reaches the dialed-in pressure setting. If I were going to use it for anything other than construction work (benchwork, framing walls around the house, etc), I’d definitely have to set it up in another room and get an extra long hose.
I bought a smaller compressor from Harbor Freight awhile back for airbrush use. It was also about $60-70 bucks and came with a cheap airbrush and hoses as well. Its much quieter for working around but its too small to drive the nailgun and it doesn’t have a tank.
John
Fpr airbrush work you only need to run it for a minute or two to build up air pressure in the tank. After that you should have enough to do an appreciable amount of airbrushing. Having the resevoir and regulator is key for airbrushing. Bought a similar unit from Lowes about a year ago and it definitely improved my airbrushing capabilities.

Thanks for posting, I’ve been looking at these. Went to my local Sears and got another 10% off. Thanks!
