air compressor.....again - Page 2

My hose and fittings came with the airbrush which screws into the can adaptor or directly into the compressor.

The compressor simply has a threaded outlet on it. Does your existing hose disconnect from the can adaptor?

yes but it is too small to fit onto the compressors outlet

***A right pain Richard,if you have a Hobbycraft branch near you they have these carded on the shelf,failing that Hannants have them mail order,make sure that you get one with the breather hole in place,they are brass.
I do wish that they would get their act together on things like this,how many of us have purchased printers with no parrallel port cables in them ? usually discovered at 1 am Sunday evening.

you can get adaptors or reducers, dont worry ! , i got mine from my local artshop/ graphics centre, but try someone like squires maybe for a mail order option....
try somewhere like hobby craft or creative world...............

Try Machine Mart, they often stock couplers and , if can cart the gear, you can check them in shop.
