I have to agree with Paul, the Paasche H-set comes with all three tips, color (gravity) cup, regular & large size bottles, & good braided hose, as well as parts diagram & assembly tool. It can often be found on eBay in slightly used condition. The art students buy one, play about, and then either give it up ot move to the much fancier ones.
I haven't yet played with all the pieces of my H-set (like the color cup & all three tips) but when I examined the build, I was ~very~ impressed. The best feature is the compressor end of the Paasche hose is a standard fitting and matched my Badger 180 Compressor ~exactly~!
Badger is almost non-existant here in Ottawa (Canada) apart from the cheap (ie. garbage/disposable sets) but the Paasche is the primary airbrush sold. And I've only seen one Testors unit in a Walmart.
I'd say look about locally and on the net, and see whats supported. Then buy something you can get replacement and extra parts for with ease.
