After five years my old bager went bad, so I dumpt it and Less than a mounth ago I went to Michaels and purchased a new Badger 350, and I went ahead and purchased the additional two Fine & Large Needle Assemblys. On December My wife got for me a new compressor. I also got me 1/4 compressor addaper and eliminated the big ring around hose that game with compressor also got a breaided hose and install a Inline watter trap that is working great also got a Jar paint filer and battery operated mixer. Already prime the plane that I am working on and am almost ready to go with the Future mention so many times on the forums. So today after applying the last color cote on the model, I tried to disconect the host from the airbrush and the Air Hose Fitting kept turning with the host connector. So would like to know if any of you modelers out there has encounter the same problem, Should I send it back to Badger since I have only had the airbrush for about three weeks.

Mike if you could give me insite I sure would be very greatful, since everybody on forum refers these type of question to

Thanks again, it is really great to be able to count an the forum community for help.[:(]

Hey edco
I have a badger 350 and mine has the same problem ! Don’t worry about it though because it doesn’t effect your painting ability and I have had mine for over 3yrs with this problem and it still produces some of my best finishes ever !

ahhh suddenly I remember the 350… that was my first brush many years ago in my past modelling life… you could email Badger and explain the problem and I am sure they will have a solution…

Thank you all for your prompt sugestions, I really appreciate it, already fire out an E-mail to Badger. I am really considering purchasing a Badger 155.

Thats a good choice! What about badgers 100LG this is an excellent airbrush as well !

Thank to all of you again, I went ahead and sent two e-mails one info@bagerairbrush.com and another to Mr. Ken Badger, already got a response from both of them. Ken Badger is going to send me a new replacement and when I receive it then I can mail the damaged one so that I dont have to be without on airbrushl That surely made my day.

The info address said that if I would send the the aribrush the would fix the problem for free, by if I did not want to send the airbrush I could order the air host fitting for $2.30 at the following Web Address: www.webairbrushes.com.

So thanks to you all this one has a happy ending.

Thank, and Thanks. & Thanks & …[:D]

Badger’s service is second to none in my opinion. They have always been there for me when I needed them.

That’s great news edco.
By the way, Ken Badger is his email address name, not his real name.
His name is Ken Schlotfeldt. [;)]

Thanks for the correction on Ken’s Name, that is good to know.

While that 350 is good for most things, keep that 155 in your mind for later if you ever decide to get another brush… it’s a really good brush that is durable and easy to work with!
