Cummins Airbrush
Posted by glweeks on Saturday, July 26, 2008 10:41 PM

Friend of mine came over the other day with a airbrush he picked up at a yard sale.   Paid $5 bucks for a Cummins  airbrush.  Double action, internal mix, bottom feed little cup.  We don't know who really makes it, I'm thinking not really Cummins the diesel engine outfit but it seemed to work ok,  spray adjusted down finer than I could get with a aztec (got one).  No clue what needle and tip is in it.  We were wondering (after pauseing for malt refreshment) where you'd get parts for it???    Anybody run into this "Cumins" before?

             thanks                            G.L.

Hi

Like you my first thought was the big diesel engine manufacturer.

A Google search brought up the following

Feature: Body length: 150mm Nozzle: 0.35mm diameter Metal cup: 5 cc plus 2 glass jars: 22 cc Control: push button Ideal for painting cars

Brand: Cummins Industrial Tools

Label: Cummins Industrial Tools

Manufacturer: Cummins Industrial Tools

I am not sure if this is the same model as the one your friend bought but is it available via www.become.com at $19.99

Regards

David

You can get the manual here if yours did not come with one.

It looks like another of those made-in-China clone of the Badger 150. Usually, the clone works fine when new, but won't last long after a few disassembling and cleaning.

You may try using real Badger parts for it. Michaels Hobby carries some Badger parts and prices are good if you use their 50% off coupon. You may also try the clone airbrush parts sold by Harbor Freight (mail order only, not at retail stores).
