It should work out just fine. It has a nozzle wrench for Hi- performance and Hi-line type nozzles and Neo (not Eclipse). A soft jaw pliers that looks really nice and is designed to take replacement jaws. A tool to adjust or remove the air valve nut. A pair of screwdrivers with guides to adjust the packing nut for the needle. There is also an empty tube...to put spare needles in. I already had a nozzle wrench BTW. I need to replace the packings on my older Eclipse air brushes and I didn't have a tool for this. I know this kit will be useful, but I've seen this kit being sold for ridiculous prices ...over $100. USD! On EBAY. I paid much less on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019EGII40?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Some recent items......... From Tamiya, their U.S. M113A2 APC Desert Version (35265) in 1/35. Bought with points earned and free shipping off Amazon. Next...... From Iwata , their Professional Airbrush Maintenance Tools. I've been debating with myself about getting this set for a while because of the price. Found it on Amazon for a little less and with free shipping. It has tools for the IWATA brushes I have and I think it will be useful. The tools are high quality . Next........ A cleaning accessory kit from GREX . Last.... A twin motor gearbox kit from Tamiya. (70097). Why? "I have a cunning plan."

Nice finds 😀 Here's a picture of an Actual squirrel I took today. He has only been taking food from me for about a day. His first interactions with me weren't very positive.....Oh, he took the food from me, but he would lash out at me with one of his (or her) paws. He soon got over whatever was bothering him and has become very gentle. Well, OK another Squirrel...... No, what is truly remarkable about this Squirrel is its Size. It's tiny.......It's truly a dwarf of a squirrel...... Much smaller and delicate than an Average Squirrel. Strange!! I have the pictures....but they are not very good because of some marks on the window. Now I don't mean to flood the Forum with Squirrel imagery but I found this encounter to be noteworthy😀

Oh, I've been doing that kind of Squirrel feeding as well. Everything in 1/16 scale ends up on my list! I also have that big ME 109 on my mind . I hear Gecko is going to come out with a 1/16 Marder but, knowing Gecko, it probably won't be seen in a year. Feeding actual squirrels isn't cheap either .....in fact, they're becoming increasingly obnoxious; demanding to be fed all day. Most of the peanuts end up buried in my yard......This instinct drives them into a frenzy. I give them cookies because I know they will eat them right away and not waste excessive energy trying to run and bury them. This "Golden age of Modelling" Is as hard to resist as it is hard on the pocket book.

Did another trigger swap.......This time on my Iwata HP-C+, once again, using Iwata part I-545-4. Making this solid, well-performing, air brush even better. A nice change.......And yes, I need to cut my nails😶 The picture of the Squirrel? Well, that's just a bonus picture. I've been feeding squirrels........Mostly peanuts with occasional cookies. They take food from my hand😀 A chipmunk eats from my hand as if it were my pet.....Shows no fear or hesitation..... Perhaps that's not an ideal situation🤔

Nice Work John😀

Superb detail work!

Let's see,.....I pay a lot now,....get it sometime in 2028,.... for an aircraft that nobody is really interested in..............Well, by all means, sign me up now😂

Glad to hear you're recovering well😀

Looking great Rob😀

Picked this up about a week ago..... From Harder & Steenbeck, it's their INFINITY CRplus 2024 Solo O.25mm Titanium. Well,.....What can i say? This thing is gorgeous. I've been very happy with my Iwata brushes but I've Heard good things about this brand and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I hope to give it a try this weekend. BTW......this was the inspiration for the Trigger swap for my Iwata. I liked the wide trigger pad on This brush. I hope this sprays as well as it looks😀

Thanks Carl....I'm very pleased with new Trigger. You wouldn't believe the trouble I had getting this thing!!!!! Sent from Chicago to Beach Park Illinois, (43 miles) It took a week for UPS to send it. multiple rescheduling of delivery dates (5). On Monday I watched tracking all day, only to have the driver say "It's not on the truck". On the phone with them multiple times. Major headaches.

Nice Work Carl😀 Sorry to hear about your shoulder......Hope you recover soon.

Added an upgrade to my Iwata Hi-Line HP-BH today....... A new trigger/lever .......Usually found on Iwata's Custom Micron series Iwata part I-545-4. This is wider, square-shaped, with larger surface area than the old one. Very comfortable.

Got this today😀 Yes, another Tamiya kit, OOP and not the easiest kit to find......Usually found in Thunderbirds markings. It's Tamiya's Republic F-84G THUNDERJET (61060) in 1/48 . You see this boxing with standard USAF markings less often. I was glad to find it.

Hoping the best for your recovery, and yes, it's best all who can should get themselves checked.

Yes, it was very nicely done. I have an Aber Barrel ....somewhere. I looked at an PE set for it, Aber, I think, but the instructions looked a little too fiddly for my aging, shaking hands, to accomplish. What I would like, is a fuel line set for the side tanks.....but always out of stock or located overseas.so, I'll try to do some light weathering.... I mean, I don't think these things were really used much. I'll try to make parts look a bit rusty, chipped, and dirty. No fake mud however....I hate fake mud if poorly done!

I like it😀 Nice work!

At one time, I collected guns and had a number of black powder cartridge rifles and carbines. I even had a a French Model 1866 Chassepot rifle, a kind of needle fire, early bolt-action rifle that used fully consumable nitrated paper cartridge It was fun making the cartridges for that😀 I also had Martini-Henry rifles, Trapdoor Springfields ,Remington rolling blocks, a 1879 lee rifle, ,Mauser 71/84 rifles, a Snider Enfield Carbine, a dutch Beaumont, Swiss Veterli, Italian Vetterli-Vitali, a Smith carbine, and a Peabody carbine.

Not a fault of USPS.....but of the seller. Waited 4 days for item to ship.......then Emailed the seller. "Oh, I'll get it sent out monday". Well, he made a shipping label and has not bothered to get it sent off " Usps not in possession ". I hate when sellers do this. I ordered (paid) For this item a week ago. When I used to sell on EBay I took the item to the post office moments after the item sold. I even brought the item to the PO sometimes by bicycle! I was working full time during this period. I know people can be busy.....this includes customers! Ok...I feel better now.

Great talent on display😀

Fantastic details on the engines😀

Cool project, looking great. I built a few black powder rifles from CVA kits back in the 80's nothing like the quality of your build....but fun nonetheless😀

I remember that one Rob😀 I was hoping to find something like Iraq war graffiti decals for it. Since there's no decal markings in the kit I guess I'll have to make an effort to weather this thing to make it not look so plain. I have some friul tracks on the way......With the Tiran, that's two sets of Friul tracks for the T-55 I've ordered in as many weeks...but they're worth It in this Case. A long while back I ordered a set of Eduard PE screens for the Enigma by mistake.....Now I can use them! Yes, In some cases people are trying to get stupid money for these things...I paid about the same as a new 1/35 kit...about the same as a Dragon kit in 1/35 (I will Never buy a Dragon kit)

No, but I did click on that exact same listing and seller while browsing on EBAY .....strange🤔 .
