Glad to hear you are happy with the airbrush,
I ought to pick up one of those cleaning bottles.
Would be nice if Harbor Freight offered a gravity feed version of that airbrush.
I had a Pasche airbrush until a year ago, I need something for a few months until I can afford something better like the Iwata that I want. Now to find an inexpensive air source, other than those cans of propellant.
The 105 is a great airbrush with the added benefit of being easy to afford!
I use, and started back into the hobby with, the Central Pneumatic AB, My old reliable Paasche AB was missing pieces and I didn't want to spend a mint replacing them. All the builds I present on this forum are painted with the HF AB. The fine detail work is painted with the "Perfect Painting Tools 0.2mm Dual-Action HD-130", another cheep AB I found on that auction site.
This Christmas, however I've requested the Badger 105 or equivalent, an improvement.
Also, I would go with the hanger, but ixnay the cleaning bottle.
BTW I'm getting the Badger because we can find at Michaels and get it with a 50% coupon.
What can I say, I'm cheep, I'm married.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I agree with Don. I use an old empty jelly,jam jar. Once it's full, I can take to a local Waste Management Center where they will take old paint cans, oil, and other household chemicals for proper disposal. Oh yeah, it's free too. LOL!

I have, and used for several years, that HF Deluxe AB. As RX7850 says, they do offer big bang for the buck. Mine is quite old now but still works well. I don't use it because I went gravity feed a number of year ago. Of course there are difference from the 'higher priced' brands but as a first AB I don't think it's a bad deal. Yes, I have H&S, Grex, Iwata and Badger brushes as well (all gravity feed) but never had a problem with the HF one. Buy the best brush you can afford but if you don't know whether you want gravity or siphon feed or 0.35mm nozzle/needle or etc. the HF one is a good start and not a lot of wasted money.
PS I also have, use and like the airbrush holder.
Buying a cheap AB would end up with costing you more. Buy a high quality AB (Iwata, Badger, H&S or Grex) and it will serve you for a long, long time.

Hi 7474,
Their airbrushes are decent and offer a lot of bang for the buck especially for $21 however I don't feel they are a replacement for a good quality Badger or Iawata. Check out the customer reviews on their site.
