first of all, hello to everyone! i've been an artist in many mediums for a while now and was wanting to start airbrushing. because i want to make a living at it i purchased 2 different brushes. 1 a cheaper paache, the other i researched and got 1 that i knew would suit what i wanted to end up doing. the 1st is fine, but i didnt want to start until i knew both pieces completely. it is an iwata, and in the proccess of taking it apart to learn it there is a piece i cannot get apart. i dont have it with me right now so i dont know the tech names to parts but, its the screw piece in the middle holding both ends together. the back i can get off fine but cannot get it unscrewed from the front. the diagram shows that it does come apart. ive even tried to use rubber grip pliers carefully but it wont budge. is this common to new brushes with a trick to get it the first time or do u know of a place i can take it to for help? where i bought it there doesnt seem to be anyone who can help. i'd love to start but i refuse to put anything in it till i know where all the pieces are. any advice would be greatly appreciated. thank you!
