CENTRAL PNEUMATIC AIRBRUSH COMPRESSOR
Posted by bobbaily on Friday, April 28, 2006 7:03 PM

My local Harbor Freight & Tools has a Central Pneumatic 30 psi Oilless Airbrush Compressor for $44.- (+ a 10% off coupon).  Anyone have any experience with this product? Or am I better off sticking with my regular air compressor (with 2 gal. holding tank)?

Thanks

Bob

Assuming your regular compressor has the capacity, I'd stick with that. Holding/stilling tanks make all the difference.

Sign - Ditto [#ditto] I have the HF compressor & it's decent although, you cannot regulate the air pressure on it. I'm waiting for payday to get the Paasche reg w/ water trap from dixieart.com

Let me ask you this... why trade in a good horse???

Hey Bob, this is Sign - Off Topic!! [#offtopic] but, would you happen to be related to a Brian Bailey who was in the Navy? Served with RVAH-9 during 1965/66 as a Plane Captain?

Thanks Bob, I thought I'd ask. There was a guy w/RVAH-9 at the time named Brain Bailey when my uncle was lost in RA-5C 149312. (I'm trying to find the Modex # of the a/c)
