I've noticed I can still see a big cloud of vapor outside of the booth when using the air brush, and very little of it seems to actually be getting sucked into the filter and out the exhaust. Granted, I am a little heavy handed with the trigger and could absolutely learn how to ease up, but this still occurs even with a fresh brand new filter. The fans on my cheap booth look like regular fans you'd find in a computer. Would trying to replace these with some better quality parts with a higher flow rate help at all or just be a waste of time? If so, do I need to look for a special type that can handle the paint dust or just send it and get whatever?
>>11238734Fans of that type can absolutely haul ass, they are definitely fit for purpose. They are definitely not the inherent cause of this. How is your tubing/extraction actually running behind the cabin? Would there be any backpressure keeping the air from flowing freely?
>>11238707Dude, keep your 3 year old out of your modelling room.
>>11238630definitely prefer the toiletpaper&glue water effect over tinfoil. i'm having some trouble applying the small PE parts without leaving glue marks. the doors barely read as such due to the glue mess.

>>11239474>i'm having some trouble applying the small PE parts without leaving glue marks.Get some CA debonder. Makes it a breeze to clean up.
>>11238734Do you know what the throughput of that thing is?
>>11239089I'm using the included exhaust tube, with the end attachment stuck into an open window when in use.>>11239488The tag on the booth claims 5.2 meters cubed per min.It does move quite a bit of air, it just doesn't seem to create enough vacuum to bring all of the paint through. Another thing, is that I kind of spray at the edge of the booth (but still within) instead of deep inside.
>>11239482thanks for the tip, will try
>mfw my room is constantly smelling like glue, nail polish remover and window cleanerI don't even have a face for that
Got myself some 3 2 dollar airbrushes from aliexpress, I will see if they are about as good as the same ones going for 20 yurobux from local hobby shops
>>11239625>2 dollar airbrushesshould be on a par with iwata desu
>>11239625Been buying a pin vise myself that just arrived today from Aliexpress. I've had like 4 of varying types from European stores and none of them clamp evenly. The 2 euro one from aliexpress just werks (tm), don't understand how it can be so hard

>>11239824I am always amazed by how steady his hands are.I recently only did some aircraft wheels with the linkages and shit and my shaky hands fucked up like seven times until it was correct.And this fucker here is stamping mirrors the size of a pinhead and gluing them to copper wires.
>>11239736they look like this one, probably because they are made in the same factory, but the spread is incredibly tight with no overspray for 10x less, it's a steal
>>11239895>probably because they are made in the same factoryThis is the same delusional cope I hear from "people" with fake Rolexes.
>>11239621Won't be any kink shaming here, brother
>>11239919abysmal comparison
>>11239919What the fuck are on about retardI compared a 20 dollar chinese airbrush to a 2 dollar chinese airbrush
>>11239919>comparing mental masturbation with something that produces tangible resultsNGMI
