About 85mm of 12mm garden hose with a 35deg cut on one end and cut the other end to suit your cup 1 piece of MDF 19MM thick 100x150mm Tip of a plastic clothes peg Hot melt glue it on your done The pro's The wet end of your brush will dry out slower The hose is soft so less chance of needle damage If your nozzle leaks it ends up in the hose Half the parts are available in your (insert offender) yard The little blue thing right near the edge? The next post will reveal all |

great idea doc and if you were to seal the bottom of the hose you could fill it with thinners or water(waterbased paint),it'd keep the nozzle of the airbrush clean

The little blue knob is the tappered end of a clothes peg And when I push down on the airbrush it vents the water from the water trap it doesn't touch the blue wedge until I push down I have made 3 of the hoses and glued them to my mobile paint stands so I don't need a bench close by to hold my brush And your right Chris you could fill the hose. Would be very handy when stipple painting it always ends up everywhere on the nozzle |
