Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
Tim,
If you look at pages 2 & 3 of Brian's post, you'll find some small 2 to 4 bottle caddies.

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
I wrote an article on my paint booth for the April 2011 NMRA Magazine. It’s a Paasche paint booth. It comes packed flat in a box, and you have to bolt together. I made a stand for it and vented it

Re: Armour Stock Car Photos
I've got photos of two of those cars, Charlie. They're attached.
I did a little digging, and it looks like these were BUILT by the CB&Q, but directly for Swift. The cars first appear in the SLSE ORER

Re: Armour Stock Car Photos
Of course I can’t lay hands on it at the moment but I recall seeing a photo of a Armour or Swift stock car that was of CB&Q heritage, possibly a SM16 36’ steel framed car or one of the wood framed

>>Is there anything close in HO? iirc there were similar stock cars operated by Swift (SLSX).

Post-1936, that's because both fleets were GATX cars leased to Armour & Swift. Armour stopped

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
Those are paint bottle holders, and they aren’t convenient to use on the workbench where space is at a premium. I made paint bottle holders by drilling holes for Floquil and Poly Scale in a 1x6 and

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
LOL. They’re so easy to make I can’t imagine a market for them. I already had a collection of circular bits, and the wood is scrap from other projects.

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
I read that shaking acrylics introduces fine air bubbles, which is undesirable, and the recommendation was to stir and swirl the bottle to mix. I do both with acrylics, first stir to break up any

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
Not the same thing Brian. A caddy is for one or two items. It has to take up minimal workspace.

The old Lindberg (later Mantua/Mantua 'Heavies'/Mantua 'Classic') stockcar will do in a pinch, though that model represents a double deck car and will

Re: Airbrushing Water-Base Paints
Jeff there is a commercial solution - vortex paint mixer. A good one will cost around a hundred dollars. Since I already have a paint shaker (photo) I have not been willing to make the investment
