Art Anderson Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Don, the Binks Wren was my first airbrush, WAY back in early January 1962. However, it's not easy to come by replacement parts for it, unlike the Paasche H, or even the Badger 350--both of which have far wider distribution, and are the same basic external mix airbrushes, from my long experience.

Roadrunner Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Where did you ever even find one? I haven't seen a Wren in decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMCMAN52 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 they're still out there. I stopped at a hobby shop in Des Moines Iowa a few years back and when you walked in they had a large table of model related items for sale from some guy that was leaving the hobby. I picked up a complete Brinks Wren airbrush with all the jars and in it's case for $15.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 That's a great price. Why do I never get that lucky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roncla Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) I still have fond memories of my Binks Wren airbrush that I purchased new back in 1972. I was blown away by its ease of use after previuosly struggling with spray cans. It stood up to decades of use and abuse but was finally put to rest after being knocked over once to often Edited June 15, 2015 by Roncla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
935k3 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Thanks for another great review Don. I always wondered about them, I had looked them up last year and the price shocked me. I think the Paasche "H" set is a far better buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrGlueblob Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Yep. Still my go-to airbrush. I have two and some spare parts. Easy to clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
