Get one made by Lucas, everything they make sucks. But they burn, smoke and blow fuses....

Thanks to Scott Douglas, the fan in the cardboard window worked perfectly. When I make a permanent version I will mount 2 fans but one is probably sufficient. I did these door handles this morning so very little continuous paint but the room was completely clean at all times.
Note all of the flaws but the surface is like butter. I’ve found that you have to coat them to expose flaws better, then sand and fill as needed and shoot again. Either that or just ice with filler and spend a day sanding. Doing the backs and barrels of Torque Thrusts next, that will be the true test of 1 or 2 fans.

Works perfect as is. Did the backs and barrels of these Torque Thrusts yesterday, a lot of paint coming out of the gun. Fan did a good job pulling paint out of the room but I'll put another one on top of it when I make a permanent version with sheetmetal.

What did you do the handles? Just paint and clear?
