I had the same airbrush for 20+ years and ran into the same issues with repair parts.  The Badger 350 looks like about the same thing, but after taking a leap of faith, I got a Badger 200-20 and it is a huge huge huge improvement.  Perfect for camo jobs in 1/72.  Much better atomization then the old wren.  I won't go back!  I would also recommend Dixie Art supplies out of New Orleans.  They have good selection and great prices and service.

LOL, my google search came up with that list too, and an airbrush artist that does amazing work with your Wren A. She's the one who said that it was discontinued and parts were hard to find.

An old internet trick of mine is to just enter binks.com and see what comes up. Lo and behold it was the Binks Airbrush company!! A search on that site got me to the Wren B model.

Good luck!

So long folks!

Binks is still around. A quick google search has the model you have as being discontinued and parts are hard to find. You can try contacting them at www.binks.com. They do list a 59-10002 model for sale.

The Paasche H or Badger 350 would be very similiar in operation and easier to get replacement parts.

So long folks!

Need parts for old Binks Wren A
Posted by Talon on Sunday, January 4, 2009 3:35 PM

Greetings, fellow modelers.  I have an old Binks Wren A (Model 59-10001), and am just getting back into the hobby after many years.  I find it needs new parts, and searching the web has not been fruitful.  Does anyone know if I can get parts for it, or do I need to bite the bullet and buy a new one?

Many thanks!
