Dear All,

When I was in high school, we had this sprayer, it was blue and hooked up to a
normal air hose. It used those fruit canning jars grandma made pickles in back
in the day for a reservoir. Now i have started using small batches of glaze,
and caustic ash glazes which i don't want to handle with my poor hands. Anyone
know what company makes these? I have searched many clay and art suppliers, as
well as Home Depot and the like. If anyone has a supplier in mind that carries
them, it would be appreciated.

TIA

I have a sprayer that sounds similar. it holds pint canning jars I found it
at Continental Clay Company 1-800-432-clay or 1101 Stinson Blvd NE,
Minneapolis Minn 55413

It is #118 Siphon Spray gun needs 30 - 40# of air pressure 1998 price is
55.55 and the snap connector needed is 6.50 hope this helps
