Coming on nicely Ian. Looks a detailed kit.

Know what you mean about losing dexterity in fingers after gardening. Luckily, I'm at the holding a hose to water new lawn phase!!! So no problems!!Hit a bump in the road. Broke the cannons off. Burger!
I have ordered some nice brass ones and while I was at it a set of masks. Been gardening a lot this week and my fingers are not doing to well at holding things, like scalpels and apparently model airplanes. I think I'll take a we pause until the postie comes. some time next week.
Does John have them? If not, do you have a link to them?I got myself some of those plastic filter cups and now always filter the paint into the airbrush , I rarely get any clogging now .
John does have them but was out of stock when I got mine , they might be back in now , if not you can pick them up on ebay for about £7/£8 a pair , but the will be coming from china so might take a while - best bet is from John if theyre in stock . I was amazed that even new unopened bottles of Vallejo ,when filtered ,left bits in the strainer mesh . Tip for using them though - I have a small pot of water that I chuck them in as soon as ive strained the paint , you dont want it starting to dry on the filter mesh while youre busy spraying , it would be a bugger to clean . Once ive finished I take it out of the water and give it a good clean under a hot tap . Obviously if youre using enamels or laquers then substitute the water for the relevant solvent .Does John have them? If not, do you have a link to them?
I must say I was impressed with the masks.
I found them in my local paint pushers so I'll get them there but thanks for the tip. Always easy to find something when you know what to look for.John does have them but was out of stock when I got mine
That's a good call. I was using a hacked Ikea tea infuser, two small stainless filters for around a quid, but got fed up of cleaning them out.Tip for using them though - I have a small pot of water that I chuck them in as soon as ive strained the paint ,
