    On Adrian's thread asking for AB advice Barry spoke highly of the Procon PS-275 trigger airbrush. Occasionally I get a kind of cramp using my ordinary AB and thought this might help. I bought it from Plaza Japan at about 2/3rds the price of UK suppliers. Ordered on 14th delivered today. I also bought the pistol grip.

    I had to smile at the label on the parcel. Someone thinks I'm important :thinking:

      Ordered a few bits from there in the past but find their delivery charges are pretty horrendous now, I've just looked at two items a total of £17 and £28 delivery costs!!! Or £42 if I want it in a hurry!

        Delivery cost will be proportionately higher on cheaper items. Even with postage I saved almost £50.

          Any chance you can do a review of it after you've used it for a while. I am getting cramp more and more these days using the airbrush and this could help

                - definitely different. I look forward to seeing how it turns out.

                  So I was very restrained at Tankfest yesterday and bought nothing in the shops!! :anguished::anguished:

                  Junior likes to buy a commemorative present when he goes and so got himself this, this time around - normally he gets a t-shirt.

                  Andrew

                  FYI it's a pint in capacity.

                      It's ok Tim. I'm alive and well.....they didn't have anything I was really after.

                      TBH though I just missed out a rare eBay find for my Hunters and Hunted collection yesterday.....

                      ....and then today found an item in eBay for cheaper than anywhere else...

                      ....not cheap and I think the most expensive kit I have ever bought - but compared to the price some are going for on model sites and eBay it's the best price I could find anywhere and even included P&P - it's a brand new tool and some model shops want 20% more than I paid for it. It's also the cheapest 'Recent' eBay sale but you'll have to wait to find out more!!

                          Also harder to see. I think there is a connection there...

                              Quite a few as illustrated on the box cover. I have two boxes of them.
