Hi :
I thought I would share this bit of home made kit with you folks. Kind of a way of saying I appreciate all of you on the forum.
This cleaning pot was made from some recycled foam rubber and an empty clean plastic applesauce jar.
The only new part was a rubber grommet used to protect the airbrush when inserting it into the side of the can.
I chose the apple applesauce jar because it was a nice size and had some flat places on the upper shoulder of the jar.
The parts I used was jar and lid. foam rubber sized to fit into the lid of the jar. Small amount of paper towel . And one grommet.
Construction method is as follows. Construction is free form nothing is precise in this project.
Clean the jar.
I cut a hole in the jar lid about one and a half inches in diameter, but the size is not important.
Cut the foam rubber to fit in the lid to act as a air filter.
Cut a hole in the side of the jar on one of the flat spots big enough to hold a rubber grommet that was large enough for a sharpy marker to fit into. The marker was a sizing gauge. I wanted the option to use a larger diameter airbrush than my Omni 5000 something like a Badger Crescendo
Insert the grommet in the hole . Put some paper toweling n the jar, and screw the lid on the jar.
The pictures will tell the story.
I hope you can use this idea.
