The Monster

This is what I use to produce all those all those drop shots I have been posting. I call this rig the monster as it is a bot over the top. This is all setup and ready to go. I have 4 bottles loaded with mix and acrylice paint & one set for side air so 5 valves firing. 3 above, 1 below, 1 side. By the time I was done with the 90 drops those side shields were a mess :)
