Re: Any fog buster users care to share their experiences?
I have a 2 nozzle Fog Buster on my machine. I use it exclusively for profiling and surfacing but it doesn't work that well for pocketing, drilling, tapping or reaming.
I put 100 PSI into the Fog Buster, and 12 PSI coming out of it. The folks who make the Fog Buster told me if I could see the coolant coming out of the nozzle, that's too much. I'll put a tissue in front of the nozzle and when it's wet, that's enough coolant. I have the 1/2 gallon reservoir and that will last close to 2 weeks.
I bit the bullet about 2 1/2 years ago and bought a Kaeser 3 1/2 HP screw compressor and have never regretted that for a second. Yeah, it was expensive ($3,500.00 for the compressor head) I have about $4,500.00 in the whole system, but it will charge a 60 gallon tank in less than 2 minutes.
AND, if I need parts for my Fog Buster, they are made less than 3 miles from my shop/home.
You can buy GOOD PARTS or you can buy CHEAP PARTS, but you can't buy GOOD CHEAP PARTS.
