My compressor

[Tryston]

Hi as am I new to airbrushing and wanted to give it a go, not knowing if I was good enough for a couple of hundred pound set's I decided to go cheap. One of the machines at work ( broken ) had a compressor on it. So I asked permission to salvage it and got the green light.
It is a Bambi
It was in a right state, so I cleaned it up stripped it down, did all the electrics and re-sprayed the frame and tank. And it works great. Silent as anything. I have put before during and after shots up and on youtube I have a couple of video's which I did for fun .

Haha awesome. You sir have an amazing beard! Wish I could grow facial hair! 29 and I only have to shave once a week. You Did a great job on it! Have you dropped the oil out of it? You can get compressor oil at Halfords if you can't nick any from work. First thing I did when I got mine was drop the oil out. Looked clean enough but I'm a bit wait for it ..... Anal (OH I SAY!) about stuff like that.

Heres my baby just because I love it
