I use an old 100 pound LPG household bottle for an extra air reservoir.
The fitting that screws into the (normally) gas outlet from a hardware store, other end of it is 1/4" BSPT. Add a tee piece and couplers and taps to suit your needs.

It's quite handy to chuck in the station wagon or van when I need air in the paddock for small jobs.
It's even better in the shed because the compressor isn't kicking in and out all the time and it's just what I need to get the die grinder spinning happily. Doesn't take up much floor space either.
