Compressor tank is leaking---is it worth fixing?

i have one of those 33 gal Craftsman compressors, probably about 10 years old. it recently started leaking from the bottom, probably rusted through.

is there anywhere i can get a cheap NEW replacement tank, or am i better off just getting a whole new unit?

Caswells

You can get a tank sealer from Caswells. This stuff is fantastic. I will swear by it. http://www.caswellplating.com/aids/epoxygas.htm I have used it for other things besides inside tanks, flash rust stoppage on sheet metal on my Mustang. Rust is stopped in it's tracks. End of story! It sealls holes if you put some tape on the outside to prevent run out. Very tough stuff. Dorf Dude...
