Hey guys I'm back, and I need some help.

Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, August 31, 2005 12:36 AM

Hey guys, I'm back now. I haven't really logged in in ages, I've been having major computer problems (8'th format, finally decided to go to linux) and busy at work and with my girlfriend. I'll try to spend more time here.

I got a few more brushes (another 155, a 150, a 100lg, a 100g, and a peak c5) and I still have one airhose for my badgers, and one for the peak. For the badger airhose, Recently, it has been leaking a bit, right at the airbrush side of the hose. The part where the hose turns into the adaptor. It's really annoying be, because I don't like havnig air blasting into my hand while airbrushing.

Thanks.

You haven't been around? I didn't notice Big Smile [:D]

Seriously, good to hear from you again.

Does the hose leak on all the airbrushes or just one? If it leaks on all of them it's most likely the hose. It if only leaks on one it's probably the air valve on that brush. Badgers all use the same valve so if it's the valve you might swap it with a brush you don't use as much. If it's the hose a small piece of Teflon tape will probably help but that's a chore when you have to swap the hose from brush to brush.

hmmm... 1337.... I don't recognize the name... Wink [;)]

kidding, good to see ya back! And I agree with ya on the Linux thing... I still use XP at home because 2/3 or the tools I use for work require it, but I have started pushing Linux servers as much as possible at work... you can't argue with results!!!

I can't offer you anything more than Scott already said but wanted to say hi all the same... Hope you can get it fixed!!

Welcome back! How's that Peak airbrush working for you? Would it be a recommend? Thanks.

Well, chap, as I own some airbrushes , I put them quick connect when they were not equipped and only one airhose ( a collection of airbrushes, yes, not a collection of airhoses)
I use a rather wide ( outside diameter is 5.76 mm, well, not so wide after all ) transparent vinyl hose and it works perfectly
By the way, it seems you don't quote your new Aztek airbrush, or am I wrong ?

Thank you all for coming José

same problem I have

My hose recently started leaking also. It is on the airbrush side. To be exact, it is at the end of the braided hose and metal allowing it to swivle around. Other than buying a new hose, I'm thinking of just wrapping massive tape around it.

My concern is how messed up the pressure may be as this end is far from the regulator.

Right there... It's not the airbrush.

Tho: Try dual-booting your system with LILO or something.

H3nav: It's a good brush, but if I had the chance I would buy a badger 100 since it's cheaper and almost as good

Torio: Nope, no new azteks
