That's what I'm looking for, but with shipping it isn't going to be very cost effective to order just that part. I'd have to wait until I had some other stuff to order. Unfortuneatly the hobby shop situation around her is pretty bleak. There's a Michael's and an AC Moore's about 60 miles away. They ...

Air hose fittings - Paasche vs. Badger

Ok, I just got a new Paasche Millenium airbrush as an extra brush to use when working on a model. Problem is, it doesn't take the same hose fittings as all my other brushes do (the rest all use the Badger hose).

After each stage now I apply a very quick, light coat of Future (unthinned, at around 25psi) and let it dry. That makes the paint much more resistant to rubbing o...

Hmm. Embarrasing, but my three brushes are all crappy. I've got the single-action Testor's, and two single action Badger's (one's a 200 or 250, can't remember. the other is a 350, or rather a clone of the 350). For me the cheapest badger (labeled "Basic Spray Gun") works best out of those,...

I personally think you'd be better off keeping everything digital. Not only is it potentially easier to show on the mentioned projector, but so long as you're willing to share your film then you can make as many digital copies as you need without a quality loss. You make a copy of a VHS tape (either...
