I just airbrushed for the first time in over 10 years. I used my old Paasche H and Vallejo paints. I am very thankful that the Vallejo paint is idiot proof. My spray pattern wasn't the best. There seemed to be spurts of paint coming out rather than a smooth mist. Luckily the paint leveled and dried smooth and perfect. All seemed fine when spraying water and alcohol. I am suspect of two things. One is the tip and needle. They are old and the airbrush wasn't sitting in the best of conditions (an unheated garage) for several years and I see what I think is some corrosion.

I am looking for places to sell online, other than eBay. Anyone have any good places? Been down the Facebook road. Specifically, any places that specialize in craftsman kits.

Found 4ft LED florescent T8 replacement bulbs at Lowes for $10 each. They had the $22 variety also and the specs seemed to be the same. They were both rated at 2000 lumens, 18 watts, 50,000 hrs of life.

Requires electronic ballast starters so some of us may have to replace the fixtures or is it possible to replace the ballast?

I know the stuff made for NKP flies off the shelves. I'm just wondering where all the NKP modelers are on these forums and facebook. I realize the NKP merged into the Norfolk & Western in 1964, but it just seems there are not very many NKP fans online. I sure would like to share my love for the Nickel Plate with fellow modelers, but it seems they are few and far between. I turned 13 years old 2 days after the merger, but it was the line I grew up with. My dad was a NKP fan, and my grandfather was a NKP Cop.
