Here it is... These pictures were taken from my

Plug head, Price: BND1.80
Since the compressor is a direct plug, every time we switched on,
it just starts, so he fixed a relay switch into it.
Price: BND1.10
This is a pvc cable(much looks like and aquarium hose)
Price: BND2.50/meter
he use 2 meter
Double aquarium valve!! just in-case something got block in the hose,
there's always a failsafe system
PRICE:BND3.50
This is the compressor, 55W, one of the most expensive item
PRICE:BND60
The compressor wasn't earthed, so he fixed it too, remember
always check your equipment for safety!!
The 2nd expensive item is the nozzle
PRICE:BND60
And so you have it..
coverall price:BND131.40
Now lets see the price of a Tamiya Air compressor...

T0T I want an airbrush also ... I think cheapest small(but bigger than yours) compressor that i saw here was BND 100 :(
You live in Brunei?
oh sorry, I didn't check your profile...
Wah bro hardware upgrade man!! Plus its a DIY version!
I got jealous with the double valve, and I cant buy an airbrush compresser yet.
this is the real DIY airbrush.....is it working like ordinary airbrush? :)
the compressor is kind of an air pumping action inside, integral airflow coming up like a motorbike(pom! pom!pom!), but when the valve came in & also the nozzle, the airflow becomes smooth & the air sound become more like a purring kitten
@gunstray: eh? nande?
@Chubbs: Now I can sense you're itching to get one too eh?? LoL
@Mangyver: I haven't tried that one yet, till I get all the paint:thinner ratio right, hand motion stability, wrist exercise.. its a lot of work tho.. LOL
bro got AB now T_T me had to wait a bit...now to get myself a laptop and...urrr...a bicycle(!?)
@ZD: what happen to your laptop? And uhh.. Bicycle?
Steady man. how's the result? have you try spray on your model already? i think you need a water trap/filter for your compressor, cause the compressor can generate water, when you spraying, so the water wont 'mixed' with your paint =)
lol hahah im at college now, the laptop i used before is Home-use only, so need to get my personal one.bicycle? hehe, alternative to lurk around here in shah alam XD
water trap? ah okay will look into it, Thanks JoJo Bro, weh lama jua nda nampak, where have you been?
