Try this for compressor shopping:

Campbell Hausfeld Compressors

Click on " HOT BUYS " and you will find a 5 hp 20 gallon compressor for $189, or an upright one for $205.

I bought the upright one a year ago to replace my aging and dead Devillbiss compressor. It is WAY wink quiet, I mean a WORLD of difference and it does everything I use it for. I run tools, nailers, fill tires, and use it for general duty and have had great luck with it and it was on some super special for abotu $200 del'd last year. Just keep checking the "Hot Buys" of this website. This is the one I got:

I don't have to run anything big like a blast cabinet, but that's why I stay friendly with 53 4 me who has the world's most impressive backyard garage! I have used it to do small blasting jobs but nothing "continuous".

Best part is that I can buy repair/replacement parts easily and locally if I need them. The DeVillbiss compressor parts were like trying to find parts for an old truck!
