This came in the mail yesterday.............

Bought it using the "buy it now" feature on Ebay.... 15 mins after purchasing that other Miller that needed to be rebuilt
for some reason...this one wasn't on the regular listings of airbrushing compressors....came up after I paid for the other one...the buy it now price was pretty good
shipping was fair as I know it is a rather heavy item...came just as fast as the other

Not only is it Mint Green in color...the machine is in MINT condition....the cord is still supple..no scratches no nicks no dents no rust no residual over spray on the body...it looks like it came out of a time capsule .... I'm surprised it wasn't in it's original box... 8O It's an older model that the one I showed previous...but it looks like it has never been used...even the nozzle where the hose adapts to still has the original paint on it :O

Suffice to say...I am very pleased with this one...and it cost me only 15 dollars more than the other :D

HAPPY TANKING GENTSImage

Do you need a compressor Jack? ...thought you had one
Here's a DeVillibiss I was thinking of bidding on...but they don't ship to Hawaii...this one is pretty good ...big piston driven pump...and some classic lines

Like I said before..you all on the continent are lucky just like tanks...some people just don't recognize Hawaii as a state :lolno: ..but there are several deals..you just have to know what you want and are willing to pay :D

Nope, no compressor here I just use the cans of propelant but you got my thinking I may want a compressor. Thought if you didn't need em both I'd help you out. ;)

Let me think about that Jack... really liking these millers...I bought my badger way back then because they were so expensive...and badger was the closest unit at almost a third of the price....and actually I won the badger in a model contest....kind of lol... the prize I really got was a monetary certificate...it just covered the price of the badger....back then about a hundred and a quarter...millers were in the 200 dollar range ...anyway...always liked the reliability of piston compressors...they are pretty rare now..as most companies have gone diaphragm for airbrushing...and now I have two :D

Keep on me though.. sometimes I need the shove :haha:
