good compressor?

Harbor frieght is pretty good for cheap. The local art shop had good ones cheap but stopped selling htem.

Hmm can't seem to find the one gallons either but something like this would work

You can also find some reconditioned ones on Ebay for a real good price

I just got back from home depot and they only had a 1.5 for 100, what kind and item number was yours?

I just went through their online store and can't seem to find any 1 gallons. ill have to make a trip by there later today

I would just head down to your local Home Depot and pick up any small run of the mill compressor with a built in regulator.
You should be able to pick one up for well under $100.
The only real difference between a $350 airbrush compressor and a regular run of the mill one is the noise.
I just got a small compressor with a one gallon tank and it works great.
