Thank you, if you have any issues or questions happy to answer via dm or comment reply. Have quite the back log of airbrush content and reviews too,

with my old methods and settings plus 1/4 to 5 failure rate it would would wear out quick with resin stuck to the film. Now I can get way over 50 prints but need a realistic bar for new people printing, Now maybe a failed print once every 15-20 prints mostly from a stupid mistake.

Hello, welcome to the channel. Most likely its a simple fault or mistake in assembly or operation. Watch this video as a full disassembly and fix step by step including everything you need to know and history of the airbrush. If you have any further questions or issues feel free to form it in the comments or message me. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4i8iJZporqtg7c

I also have another video of thinning and paint trouble shooting

From my experience lego is abs-pc and melts handles different and more resistant then normal 3d print abs. The master lego builders use MEK, closest hobby product to that is any extra thin plastic cement. Lego is closer to normal styrene plastic used in model kits. I wouldn't use this stuff or other abs glues. With mini figs if attempting to fix a articulated part it needs tension and the break point be fixed with glue.

Yes has wifi but cannot comment on it as I have not tested it and really dislike operating machines or feeding data like that.

Hello, I am happy to try to walk you though fixing it. First check the screw at the far back of the airbrush cover is loose and not tight. That will block the needle from moving. Second remove the back cover with the screw and check the back of the needle and needle nut, this needs to be tight and move when the trigger is operated. Last you need to pull the whole thing apart like the video and find if the needle guide assembly is right or nothing is missing or blocked.

Thank you very much for the update and shall pin your helpful comment,

lol

No, you can safely apply tamiya on top. I would not brush on lacquer beside that anything else is more or less safe. If still concerned do a test piece or start on a non visual part of the model.

Personally HP series that special and kept mine in the box as polishing/ lubricating a newer Chinese hseng gave me the same results and cost less then 1/10. With that pattern of airbrush nothing has changed in like 50-60 plus years. Gaahleri has inavated a few weak points and aspects of the gravity feed double action and would have happily bought it being half price to Iwata.

Hello, never remove the needle when there is paint in the cup or if internal is dirty, air filter will need a long female air valve adapter and extra air valve ontop. Your better off using a different portable airbrush system using 1/8'' and add hose and filter.

@mokanaman thank you very much!!

Hello, 3rd series of 4d are fairly accurate (including this model) to the source material going though google search the the vehicles dimensions and hitting it though scale model calculator. The first series which is the cheapest is box scale and each armor sits on the same chassis. Some of them would be around 1/56 and agree building them they are perfect for wargamming but the detail and resemblance of the tank is terrible .

I bought the whole Smodel catalog of kits at release except couple limited and special ones. Some more are reviewed here the rest will be built over the coming years. Its a fantastic brand and any of them are worth getting. Thank you for the kind comment and glad to have you following. Happy modeling.

Ive seen modellers detail very cheap dollar store army men and tanks then expertly paint into something great. Really anything can be polished and improved to our hobby standards.

Thank you very much for the wonderful airbrushes, few in my inner circle has just ordered them or plan to do so. The other video will come out in 2 weeks.

no, like a very faint buzz sound close to vibrate mode on your phone. I play the sound at some point in the video.

in short yes the ink will mix with water long version no if will not spray well and stain the cloth right as water does not atomize well via airbrush

please check the description, if link is dead you can use the maker and model name which I credit to google search it.

I can help you with that, in my country there is a weird law regarding solvent thinner and paint sales to public for environment and to get around this they use the word arylic for whatever reason. I assure you its pure toluene, xylene, and acetone. You can also get water based enamel and lacquer thinners now adays so lots of crazy chemicals and lots of confusion. Always read the label.

@mokanaman Good to know. Thank you.

Exactly the intent of the scheme as per the lore, thank you for the kind feedback,

Hello, this was borrowed from a friend/ client and asked to try it out for a video. In the state at time of filming the compressor was several years old and pre owned. I used it for about a month with out issue, the friend is still using it to this day. Others who own it claim it will last decades with proper care. I can assure you knowing the compressor factory (not the brand) they make crazy amazing stuff, buy with out fear and will get one for myself also second hand to save some coin.

does not have a pressure meter so cant tell you and 2 different websites quotes different working and max pressures.

Best give me a sub as I already covered like 100's rare and obscure kits and have a whole collection to go though during the life time of this channel.

@@mokanaman about those gems for lenses ? got any clue where to get them, or what they 're called, english is not my 1'st language, so idk what to search for

They are called sticky back gems and come in all sizes and colors and useful for other project other then zeon suits. I found them cheap at dollar stores but online is fine too.www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004735443484.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.1.144aOyp8Oyp8Zu&algo_pvid=6389625a-b54a-4c27-a09d-469e085e4bcd&algo_exp_id=6389625a-b54a-4c27-a09d-469e085e4bcd-0&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21AUD%212.34%212.34%21%21%211.52%211.52%21%40210312d517307702807654037e84ee%2112000041180475935%21sea%21AU%21906840161%21X&curPageLogUid=IhdQ8ckM9jzs&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A

This is a great question and only talk about it from time to time. Model glue I use before painting as it melts both surfaces to create one piece. Once painted the glue can damage or run the paint and needs plastic on plastic contact requiring me to scrap paint off or mask the glue surfaces. Its so much risk and extra work pva is just quicker or super glue if strength needed.

there are tonnage of 3d files out there more being leaked every day from video game files. Some remix them and upload some design there own. Look at any 3d file providing website and see whats on offer.

I have not heard of that before, over sleeve and bolting from both sides in a pattern achieves this mechanically. Im sure there are other methods or tests but if its so tight tapping it produces a beat kinda like a drum your pretty much good. Manufacture instruction does not mention this as well.

@@mokanaman I saw it on Anycubics youtube page on how to replace it. I kept having failures and when i looked it up on there thats what they did.

Ah will have a look, thanks for the tip.

@@mokanaman any update?
