Go to walmart and buy a $79 air compressor. It comes iwth a 2 gallon tank, regulator, and a hose.

I have a Badger Crescendo, Double action. I seriously never use the air regulator on it. Save money and just get a single action with constant air.
I work around bigger compressors, and the noise doesn't bother me at all, and there's always earmuffs .

Only problem with living in NZ is there is no Wal-Mart, and no where that I've found, that sells the smaller, quiet compressors, except the Tamiya Airbrush/Compressor combo for $425!!!

My other idea/alternative that I had was to get one of those mini 12V compressors, used for car emergencies, and plug that into a 24V (mains) converter, total price would be like $40-50 USD. Only I'm not sure how well that would work, or the lifespan of it either.
