I had a workshop at Appalachian Center for Crafts last week end. I had
brought my sprayers and glaze materials. I use the HVLP from Harbor Freight, it
costs about $50. I also use a Pachhe sprayer. i like the little blue handle Pachhe
sprayer. I use it for my ash glaze. Its very little , it goes a long way. I
had a bigger Pacche sprayer and it dripped big drips and i was spraying big
platters, well i got about P-oded and smashed it against my Hickory shade spray
booth tree. I really like the HVLP from Harbor Freight. By the way , my shade
booth tree has lost its leaves for now

I spray at 40PSI,,, I also seive thru a 80 mesh screen , I want to buy a 120
mesh screen .
