    I have the same airbrush and it does suffer a bit with the .15 needle went up a size and it was fine. I also have issues with my nozzle at times. I put it down to age.

          Good stuff :thumb2:
          234! If it makes you feel any better the railings for my yamoto come with individual upright posts , each post needs a 0.3mm hole drilled,without counting and hoping a lot are spares there must a 1000 posts on the fret :tired::dizzy:
