Aztek adaptors?

So I have an Aztek airbrush for the time being...I'd like to sell it because it's a little overkill for me...BUT I have an air hose that's incompatible with the brush's connector. Does anyone know of adapters that go from Aztek to 1/4"?

Yeah, any hardware store should be able to set you up with what you need. I had to get one for a Badger hose that came with the aerosol can a long time ago.
Hope that helps

yeah i stopped by a local Ace and they had nothing. i even stopped by 2 local art supply stores and they didn't have what i need. there are a couple of other places i can try before i break down and either dig through storage to find the original hose or order the $15 dollar replacement....depends on how much the adapters at the shops are i suppose...

i have an airhose on order that has 1/8" female couplers on both ends...but even though the specs on my compressor say 1/8" it sure as heck looks like 1/4" on a ruler

so it looks like i'll need a 1/8 to 1/4 AND a 1/8 to aztek (1/16?)

Several years ago, I had a similar issue, and the local Home Depot pipe fittings area had the parts I needed.

I did bring the parts in with me so the store staff 'genius' working there at the time could clearly grasp precisely what I was looking for, and 5 minutes later, had the correct fitting.

thats the plan...as soon as i have my hose i can go get adapters if needed. i was more curious to know whether or not anyone knew of a specific place to get this one im talking about.
