DragonAir - Airbrush manifold project...
When you want to run dual DragonAir - airbrushes, you need a custom manifold.
Tonight’s project all completed, brass fittings, Iwata flow control valves with gauges.
I may even give this the SMS treatment to match the Iwata valves...
Haha, it's actually for the weathering side of things Rob. If I'm using a color for weathering a boxcar, say mud spattering up the ends from the wheels, and then wanting to seal that with a flat clear. Saves me having to clean out the color A/B then do the clear, then clean that out, only to add the color back to keep moving...
Nice setup Jas. Is the regulator housing plastic? Is there concern about the amount of leveraged weight from the brass and valves? Would hate to see one accidental bump damage your regulator.
Now you are showing off. But I like the idea of a second airbrush on standby.

ReplyDeleteThanks Alan, the regulator housing isn't plastic, its cast out of chunk of something...?
