compresser substitute

[jonelzoe]

i am getting a Badger airbrush and it runs from 15-50 psi need an inexpensive substitute for the compresser until i can buy a compresser i am thinking of geting a few 3 liter soda botles and ataching an adaptor to it i need other ideas im desperate
thenks
Jonel :D

the little cans will last long enought to do a body,

plastic DOES NOT hold up to compressed air, something like a air tank will work and they are cheap

for my science project (water rockets) i got them to hold up to 200psi

IMO spray cans are the way to go... just IMO cuz isn't this ur first body???? way overkill if u ask me...

well you guys would laugh if you saw what i use to power my badger air brush .ohh go on then i will show you .lol very cheap car tier inflator . these are 12volt i run it of a old batterie charger i cut of the valve stem holder and just hooked some thin bore rubber hose from it to my air brush its a bit loud but gets the job done .the psi can reach 300 not need but good to have all these cheap tier inflators have different psi ratings and some are adjustable ..this one cost me ohh a hole 5 bucks ,lol.well there yah go
