$110 · Earlex Spray Station 5500 Paint sprayer

I bought this about 12 years back and only used it for a couple of cabinets I was making. (Not the most efficient way of doing things!) It's spattered with paint but has had little use in the great scheme of things. Possible alternate use: conversation starter in living room. Manufacturer's blurb: This all-in-one high-volume, low-pressure sprayer system is capable of producing the finely atomized particles needed to create a flat, even finish, allowing you to maximize coverage and minimize the number of coats required. For use with a wide variety of materials, including thin liquids, lacquers, oil-based and water-based stains, varnish and latex paints, the system has an all-metal spray gun (including the internal fluid components) and a one-quart reservoir that is Teflon coated for easy clean-up. You can set the spray pattern to a vertical or horizontal flat jet or a circular jet, and a volume dial lets you fine-tune the material flow rate. The two-stage turbine sprayer provides a filtered air flow of 42 cfm at 2.2 psi. The portable unit has a sturdy carry handle and convenient onboard storage for the spray gun, the 13' air hose and a 5 1/2' power cord. Measures 12" in diameter by 20 1/2" high. Comes with a general-purpose 2.0mm stainless-steel fluid needle and fluid tip, a wrench, a small cleaning brush and a viscosity cup that lets you determine if your paint or finish is at the right dilution before spraying by timing the flow as it drains through the cup.
