Hi guys,

Sorry for this ranting post...

Recently while cleaning my abby, i broke the nozzle and now part of it is stuck inside the airbrush. Went to Hobby point to get it repaired today and i guess all i have to do now is to wait for their GOOD news, i hope.

Anyway, my hopes aint that high though. I heard about Dan talking about Art Friend in bras basah complex selling airbrushes.

Are badger abbys any good? How much does their dbl action cost? Lowest price one of cause...

Hope you guys can help me clarify!

hi,

mine was a Spartan bought from Hobby Point. Giving me lines from 3mm onwards at a cost $120.00. Hobby Point also sells spare parts, which give me some sorts of assurance, that replacement, if required is readily available.

As for Badger, I have never tried that before and is intending to that as long as "Art Friends" do sell their spare parts.

i can recommend u a place to get airbrush..its called 'comercial straits'...i know i have the name card...somewhere...

went to the shop 1 day with my faulty airbrush to hav them repaired..he rejected me cause he say i didnt buy it frm him so he dont wanna repair..then i told him i got it as a gift (which is true, my mentor gave it to me) and i cant let it to waste..he then repair it for me only having to replace sumthing..he then told me if i bought any airbrush frm him, he'll repair it for u for free...

thats why i'll recommend him to u...the problem is i cant seem to find the name card....dammit!!

Hi Danny,

just been to hobby Focus yesterday and he is offering Badger's gravity feed (think it's 170 or something) at S$190 before 10% discount.

Also selling the spares part.

Cheers!
