My hat is off to you or anyone who can run one. I've only seen one in real life up close. They look so intimidating!

Ken, Here in Delaware there was a guy that just sold out last year and used mb or mb type machines since 1973. The guy that used to help him now stipes using an old mb machine. Uses an old funnel to fill the tank.... He looked at my speeflo machines and said they look intimidating.

The one I saw was covered in gears, chains, rods, pulleys, guages and hoses galore. I was impressed. Wish I had taken a pic.

That is why they get the hard to use reputation, that thing was from the 60's probably, I bet it had an exhaust heated spray shield/paint drier Ken! The MB Dan has for sale here is the better of the airspray designs to use IMO, the chassis design is capable of adding a hitch for LazyLiner etc. Easier handling than third wheel to the rear machines, I cannot imagine the operation of one of those with a rider. MB has lower center of gravity, less BS piping, valves etc. than I see on some of the airspray brands. I still have a couple of these. If anyone needs some Guru tips or wants to see some Mods I have done for riding capability etc. PM me.

I striped with one of those dinosaurs for years. It was a KC model B-4. The traction was air actuated and you stood/rode on a ground trailer. It had 4 on/off handles. One for traction, one for spraying and the other two were used to spray either one gun or two. It had two gauges, one for the spray gun atomization and the other for tank pressure. the exhaust was routed by a flexable steel hose down to air curtains mounted on each side of the guns where the exhaust kept the line kinda crisp.

That's the one! WoW! I find them facinating. How long did it take to set up before each job?
