Anyone have one of these that they are happy with? I'd like to add one of these to my arsenal, but like most things, I prefer a Creeker recommendation over advertising hype:)

I've never seen an airbrush blaster but I have seen the PAB unit and was impressed with the detail achieved by it.

I use one for doing fine work on crystal stemware - get the Paasche 542-1905, it's less than $20 for the pen and works great with the right grit.

I used to use a Paasche Air Eraser years ago . Worked great for detailed freehand work.

Thanks guys, that Paasche sounds familiar, the PAB I had never seen. The grip looks like a modified paint can spray gun on that one, pretty ingenious if they can command those prices for 'em:) It also gets me thinking....everyone duck!:D

Actually, the PAB is the Cadillac of sandblasting nozzles. I am a fairly new sandblaster/sandcarver but I can tell you that the folks on the sandcarving forum I belong to speak very highly of the PAB.
Personally, I have a Cyclone Bottle Blaster for light etching and a homemade pinch nozzle for the bigger stuff. Learned about both on cuttingedgesandcarving.com
