Air source choices for air brush

Find a super cheap compressor. I think you can get a small one for less than $50... I know there are a few specific airbrush compressors for that amount or so.

I had a compressor that I found at a garage sale that was meant for pesticides.. it cost $20. Lasted for a long time... heck its still good I think, lol. 

Well, You better have a good set of lungs to power that Badger

Harbor Freight has a hobby air compressor for around $50 when on sale

I have one and it works pretty good & I've been using it the past 2 yrs or better now.

Hey jon, I bought mine over 2 yrs ago and it had a non adjustable air regulator on it. Got it on sale for like $35. It's still going strong (I did get  a Paashe regulator from dixieart.com for it for like $30 ) Noise level isn't much more than a fish tank's air pump when the water level is a little low or, a sewing machine at full throttle.
