AIRBRUSH TECHNIQUE - LEARN TO AIRBRUSH - View Single Post

I have never used a airbrush before. I have had 2 given to me. I make custom pens with a wood lathe and decided this might be a good way to do some of my painting that I have to do sometime. I got a Paasche VL #3(it has several new needles with it too) and a Paasche AB Fine arts airbrush. Looks like a turbo to me. Both of these are brand new in unopened boxes. When I got them.

Now for the problem
I can't connect them to my air compressor. I got a air hose for air brushes but it don't fit the connection on the paasches. I need to know what is the size of the connection on the AB its self. Its not 1/8" and it looks too small for a 1/4".
