 Subject:  D-500 compressor and Aztek a470 brushList thread.  
  
 Date:  Nov 18, 2002
 From:  Jason Apperson 
Howdy everyone, first of all, thanks to everyone that has been answering my questions concerning airbrushing. My girlfriend is buying me my very first airbrush for christmas, and I want to make sure I tell her exactly which one I want. Now, I am looking at the Aztek, which I believe is the A470? or something like that. As a first airbrush, what do u all think? I have been told it can be a great brush for all skill levels. Also, the real reason I wrote today, is because, I really can't find a good enough compressor at any of my local hardware stores. They all seem to be a little bit of overkill. I was hoping to find one by craftsman or something carried at Home Depot or Sears. Also, since I work at a hobby store, it seems like we have soem pretty decent compressors, and the one I have heard alot about is the Passche D-500. What do u guys think? Can i hook it up to a tank? All I want is constant, uninterrupted airflow for my brush, so that i dont have any bad experiences. That may be a lot to ask for, I dont know, please help.
