I agree with Deane. I use an 'inherited' visor device, combined with my lineless bifocals, and it works well. In my experience, or maybe it is my eyes, my...
I've got a MagEye that I use. The MagEye is cheaper than the Optivisor an much lighter. That said, the best thing for me was to take an old pair of glasses...
Just curious, I don't have an Air Brush but I do plan on getting one soon. How do bend you needels? Drop them or do they bend over time? BTW I have seen but...
... I haven't bent one yet (<knocks on wood>), but I would imagine that most needles are bent when painters are in a hurry during the disassembly, cleaning,...
I work very close to the piece with the end cap completely removed so I can see where the needle is and get even closer, so my needle is subjected to a lot of...

... Pix?? I have a badger 500 and have never gotten good results. I figured it had to do with too thick paint, but even when I thinned it, it just wasn't doing...

Howdy I use a toothpick. The cheap ones you get from the supermarket. You get 200 for a dollar or whatever. I use them to mix my paints as well, (but on a wet...
