Bought an airbrush, Badger 150, double action at A C Moore 50% off weekly coupon. Even though I'm new at this it made a big differance. Quick learning curve.

PB -- airbrush - double action. All are right on target with AC Moore. You will want to set up a spray booth for spraying in the winter. lots of dry spray settles on everything! By the way - what lathe are you using?

Offer still stands on thru drilling. PM me w/number and we can get together soon. Look for a warm day as my cave is a shed and It is a pain to get the heat going

Bought a cheapo airbrush. Have not used it yet, but would like to experiment and have not even taken it out of the package. Bought Enamel paints to go with it and air brush thinner. If I want water based paint for an air brush, does Michael's sell it?? I remember someone talking about Createx?? Maybe I'm wrong....????
Not worth it to me to go out and spend $200 + on a compressor/airbrush. Not for the few plugs I make anyways.

Buy the createx water-based paint....more selection of color and easier to change colors/clean up!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
