I myself use a 20lbs co2 tank for modeling and business and well forking over 20 bones every couple of days for refills while not having the upfront bones to get a decent compressor, have been looking for alternitives.
Getting this tank is a good idea... you can get an attachment for refilling it so all you have to do is take it to your local Cheveron put a few quaters in the tire refiller and refill this bad boy. youll need a regulator and moister trap for it plus the attachments for refilling at the gas station, plus anything you want to add to it for how you work and paint... and still comes out less then even a hobby compressor.
11 Gallons is what I need for my business but you hobby guys can get good milage from the smaller 5 gal.
I am deffintly going to give this a try at its price.
