New airbrush day!
« on: January 16, 2025, 01:11:26 AM »
I have been using a SATA 4B as my “workhorse”, unfortunately parts (I need a needle) are impossible to come by.

So I managed to grab an Iwata Vault release - these are “collectible” reissues by Iwata of some classics. I have a larger one, almost big enough to be an auto gun, and I really like the Vault concept.

My new workhorse! A Kustom-CS, which very nicely comes with a pistol grip air filter (my compressor has one too).

WKRP in CINCINNATI!

Badger sells one.  "TRANSPARENT IN-LINE DRAINABLE MOISTURE TRAP".  A bit different than the one I use but it has been 15 years since I bought it.

Oh for sure! The filter is a great add-on; I have an Iwata compressor with a tank, and a filter (two sided!) and I STILL love the idea of a filter which will make sure that the air I am using is dead dry. The filter even has a micro drain for buildup of any moisture.

Ordered a crown cap for it tonight. Something I forgot!
