Well men the final build was this evening everything is a go total cost $17.35
additional cup cost $ 1.57 per cup valcanos astalavista no-mas I'll be posting a step by step build of this fluid bed it loads with 1 tablespoon with slight product loss. I'll be building a 100 watt cure oven next to cut down on the kitichen use!!!!!!
"O" Its easy to build,clean,maintain and repair use's a 20-60 gal. pump
Gotta post some pics.
can't wait to see this
men I hope the text instructions show up on photos haven't really got this photo insert stuff figured out.
the way this bed works is the air comes in ,in a angular direction in a narrow
pentium or chamber thus rotating creating a even folw on the surface of the
coffee filter when the air passes thru the filter it lifts the paint in a even boil
a quick pass thru the paint with the heads pre heated to 300 in oven its a done deal it coats as fast as you can go also you can turn the air up and suspend the jig over the pot and fog the bottom or top and marble
:)
complete assy.I might have to try loading pics. with text ful size?
Hotpink!!!!!!!!
Is that done with powder paint?
ya buddy its powder it lays a much thinner milcoat of paint on surface where you can build up for candies and topcoating eyes with clear then you can do a final cure and bond all surfaces together.
Thats cool gonna have to try that one day.
looks complicated. Maybe I am just retarded when it comes to this air thingy
Me too!!!Quote:

Excellent job on your home made fluid bed. Used FBs (mostly for larger jig) but like using brushes now. If you are interested – I have micro-mesh screen used for the cup medium – PM me your snail mail. You don’t need as much air to lift the paint.
I used a ¼” NPT X ¼” (quick-connect) tubing fitting on my base and only one entry. Made it easier to swap colors – change the FB instead of the cups. It was easy to store. faster for changing, and less mess. Your base configuration looks like it creates a whirlpool. Another way you can attach the tubing to the cup is to use ¼” tube unions – glue one end into the cup and use the other end to attach the tubing.
Nice build. Thank you for sharingthis.
Sweet!!! I'll chime in with the rest in saying "THANKS" for sharing this info!!
I like it
