Pulled the trigger...
 


On a new compressor. The one I currently use is an old badger that my friend gave to me when I got into my Paasche talon aribrush...that was a couple years ago. It has worked for me, but always seemed to be stressing and it has a very low max pressure. Last week I was moving some stock around and knocked it off the table.I managed to get it back together and running, but I would not be very happy if it failed in the middle of painting the elep...urmm, my next project. So, I found a deal on a Paasche compressor with a tank and jumped on it. I should have it in a few days fromChicago Airbrush. Man! I can't wait! yes! I am this excited about a compressor...and yes, I need to get out more.</p>

Yes, thanks again Jim.
Seems I will be waiting for a bit though. I have a certain tab to pay off and that comes first.

No I was thinking about this tonight and decided that it will be a stock build this time around, except for wheel bearings. Unless I find something I really think needs an upgrade, this baby is going stock naked OTB!


ps...my cat just pissed on me foot!!!

Hey brutha you got nothing to live up too, if you build an Elefant I know you'll smoke it!

Besides I know these 2 really great guys who run a top notch RC vendor, I can put a word in for you if you'dike (LOL) and who knows maybe you can land a smokin deal on one of these new Hooben kits. Or maybe I should just make it easy on you and offer to sell you mine!

Anybody seen a slightly used Elefant around here?
