I don't plan on getting one -- I have an older siphon feed already that I got a long time ago and don't use .. I'm looking at picking up an Iwata :)

That's my next higher priced tool purchase...  My Badger #105 is pretty decent, but I constantly read or see that Iwata's are the airbrush of choice for a lot of guys that do a lot of heavy painting/model building.

I have more than one Iwata and the one I use the most for model painting is the least expensive of the ones I own.
It's an Iwata Revolution, which at the time was listed for $89.99 at Hobby Lobby and I had a 35% coupon for any one item.
I bought it for less than $60, not including Tax.

I’m no Ed K., but ten dollars is ten dollars.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Here, in Cecil County, Maryland, you might be surprised what $10.00 will get you behind the Wal-Mart.   :scared:

I just got an email from Micro Mark. They are promoting the 'Testors' version of this airbrush, which has syphon caps to fit the testors 1/4 ounce bottles, for 39.95.

I have a mind like a steel trap...a VERY rusty, old steel trap.
