Now that's a heck of an idea. Only question is how do you keep the thing 
lubricated? I would not think the seal life would be long without some kind 
of lubrication. Might be worth some thinking about. Ceap little sears 
compressor I have here does not do much, even if hooked up to a freon bottle 
for a holding tank.
