    I like that side by side comparison he did while talking in the video. That's a pretty quiet compressor.

    I have one of those California compressors but in the 10 gallon size. No issues in the last 6 months or so and it's very quiet compared to "normal" compressor

    California Air Tools. Excellent quality and very quiet. After a year and a half of nearly daily use I have no complaints.

    Let us know what you think of it... It also is handy to have around the house for many other things.

    If you already have a compressor you use for tools or filling tires then all you need is a cheap regulator to make it work with your airbrush. I bought a $15 regulator from amazon and I use my airbrush with my 30gal shop compressor.
