Question
I am looking to start working on a mist system form my mill but I do not want a compressor in my shop (Im sure I will need to cave on that sooner or later). I have been churning the wheels on how to achieve this and I keep coming back to a Wagner power painter. They mount on a 5 gal bucket, they run off an airless pump, they maintain a positive charge on the line and have many adjustable tips.
Has anyone attempted a conversion such as this?
Some things that come to mind:
Multiple stage filtering - The coolant would need to be super clean before sending it through the pump.
Nozzle would have to be mounted in a modified holder.
Solenoid valve would have to be added to replace the trigger.
Looking forward to feedback.
