Since they made us all switch to new "overfill protected" propane tanks a
year or so ago, there are LOTS of quite servicable propane tanks out there
you can get for free. They were originaly hydro-tested to 200PSIG working.
Trust me getting the original valve out can be a bitch, so you just might
want to leave it and work with it.

Your basic 5 gallon BBQ tank would take up less space than a tire.. and I'd
be comfortable with it filled to 100PSI...

I find the need for a small jet of compressed air to blow out chips etc
from time to time. I am thus looking for a source of compressed air to
which some sort of air gun can be attached. It has to satisfy three
requirements:
1) It has to be cheap,
2) It has to take up little or no space,
3) It has to be cheap,

I heard some people simply use a spare car tire. I asked at Summit tools
(who carry all kinds of air stuff) if it is feasible to attach a hose and
an air gun to a tire, they did not think so. I really do not want/need a
full-sized compressor. A compresed air bottle seems a bit of an overkill.

Any suggestions?
