Air-Valve Autobot!
today my new toy arrived : the Creos PS 276 with a 0.3 nozzle it is a "cheap" $110 airbrush if you compare it to Iwata prizes :D
I must admit I am really impressed by the way this airbrush sprays straight out off the box the airvalve spring and the needle spring are soft enough and the off set airvalve sits real good in my hand
The trigger response is just like my micron but the big side cup has to go as I need to put in more paint than I like to get it to spray but besides that I am able to spray hairlines with out a problem .

I have a 0.2 set up and a adapter for Iwata side cups on the way and I will remove 2 sprongs from the needle guard to make it a 2 sprong needle guard
 
After playing with this airbrush as it came I decided to change out the air valve spring the stock spring is soft but I am used to real soft and I love the feel off the AVW springs I bought from @AndreZA so that spring went in this airbrush
The replacement 0.2 nozzle and needle also arrived and the nozzle cap is on its way as I write this and should arrive next week the Grex adapter will take a little long to arrive as that part needs to come from the US
I must state the airbrush really doesnt need the 0.2 upgrade but it does need a different side cup as the original is to big and to heavy for my taste the little Iwata side cups will give this airbrush a much better balance
 
I adjusted the needle cap and did some more testing with Etac efx straight drom the bottle pressure set at the compressor =2 bar regulated at the airbrush with the macvalve starting with a fully closed mac I managed to get these lines with the mac ( from Grex) about 1 turn open
the magnet is 5mm
