Able To Add Remote Option To Paashe Aec?

[joecooper84]

I received the Paashe AEC over the weekend, got home, used it, and realize I'd be having to refill that little hopper quite often (I'm sure I need to adjust the amount flowing through it anyway). I went back to the site and saw the Remote option. Can I use the same air scribe and just buy the Remote option, or is that a completley different airscribe anyway?

What I bought:

What I'm looking to add:

Diagram which leads me to think I'd have to buy a different air brush:

Thanks all for your help!

Looks like this is the one you'd want.

You would need a different air eraser.

From what I have heard, the remote option for the air brush type do not work well with the air erasers. ( The $9.97 model. )

I think you would be better off to get the kit that is meant to be used together.

The other option is to jury rig a larger gravity feed cup and adapt the air eraser you are using.

And whatever you do, don't use the aluminum oxide ! It is much too harsh for delicate fossils, but might work for very hard matrices.

I have a top feed one from Harbor Freight. It has a small cup, but I don't do that much prepping, so filling it every few minutes is not that annoying to me, at least not yet.

And I use dolomite powder from a pottery supply store. Or baking soda, right from the box.

Hope this is helpful.
