■ Dear Total T Thank you very much for your help with the parts. The HP-63C for which I ordered the parts this time was purchased in my 20s and has been a favorite for probably about 30 years. I accidentally damaged it, and I had given up, thinking there would be no more parts available. Until I found your company online, I was thinking of buying a cheap one made in China. It looks like I can revive it with these parts. Now I think I can use it for the rest of my life... I want to use it until the day I die. (lol) Thank you so much.
■ Thank you, Takeshima-san. I recently purchased a handpiece on Mercari. I immediately connected it to a compressor and did some test drawing. Currently, I'm using Creos as my main pen and I think that's sufficient for me, but the operability and texture of the Olympus are in a class of their own! Part of the reason is that the push button is lower, but my fingers don't get tired as easily. I'm also using Tamiya's 0.2mm round button, and it's clearly easier to draw lines. I previously purchased the Olympus DANDAN side cup type, but since I was just starting out at the time, I felt it was a waste (lol) and used a Chinese-made handpiece. I tried the side cup type again and it's so much easier to see! From now on, I'll use the side cup type as my main pen and switch to the 0.2mm Olympus for fine details. I regret not switching to Olympus sooner. It's amazing that a nearly 40-year-old Jumbo is still in use. I'll get back to you!
■ airbrush-tool.com, your online airbrush store Total Tea President: Mr. Takeshima, and all the staff I have indeed received the product I ordered. Is it your "Ma'am" who always kindly writes me a handwritten message? I apologize for the trouble I've caused by ordering so many times. I told myself that I'd be happy without messages from now on, but I always read them carefully first. Actually, I have a secret pleasure: opening and closing the paint cup lid on my Olympus airbrush. I'm sure Mr. Takeshima would understand, but the opening and closing is so much smoother than other companies' products, especially those Chinese-made knockoff airbrushes. It's not a "tight" or "tight" fit, but a truly "soft" one. It fits in smoothly, without any squeaking or scraping noises or resistance. I'm in awe. I'm amazed at how they achieve such a comfortable fit between metal parts. It's probably the meticulous craftsmanship of a bygone era. It seems more like a work of art than an industrial product. The other day, I bought a used small compressor to train a future plastic modeler, and first bought a cheap Chinese-made airbrush out of curiosity, thinking I'd see what it was like, in case my young son had a malfunction on his first try. And what an incredible "toy" it was that didn't disappoint. I tested it so well that I laughed, but I was shocked by the low precision of each part. There were unfinished burrs everywhere that could cut your hands, parts were loose, and they felt stiff with no grease. The plating was flat and citron-like, and the nozzle and air cap had meager threads that were visible to the naked eye, and rubber gaskets were used in each attachment point. "Do we really need a rubber gasket in a place like this?" I suppose the idea is to compensate for the lack of precision with the rubber gasket, but my honest reaction is "No way, this isn't going to work..." After struggling to get the needle out, I finally managed to pull it out with pliers, and it "bent". It was my first time seeing a "bent" needle. The blunt tip was visible to the naked eye. It was truly a "toy". I never thought Chinese-made airbrushes would be this bad... I really felt Takeshima's indignation. It's cheap, but you wouldn't want something like this to be called an "airbrush". I followed the blog and saw it listed on Amazon. I hope that someone who really needs this great product will get their hands on it. This is an unnecessary addition, but there's a passage on the page introducing the paints that Takeshima uses that really made a big impression on me. He said that people who start airbrushing seriously will eventually get their paint from a reputable local dealer, and that he wants to worry about purchasing small quantities of paint as a "stopgap" until then. A typical "unscrupulous" dealer would say, "The paint we recommend is the best! The lowest prices in the industry! We provide excellent after-sales service!" so it would be unthinkable to get paint from anywhere else. (And yet, when things go wrong, they blame others and run away.) But he always thinks from the user's perspective, and even considers the local dealers in each area, saying that his work is just a "stopgap" until then. His attitude of valuing the "interests" of future users and the industry (and others) over his own immediate "profit" is impressive. I'm sorry, but what I meant to say as a long, selfish thank you ended up being a bit selfish. I apologize if I was rude in any way. Thank you for your continued support.
■ Thank you for your support Thank you for taking the time to call. I immediately recognized your voice as the one I hear on the DVDs and website, and even though I couldn't see your face, I could picture your expression in my mind. Despite my ignorant and naive questions, you patiently explained everything to me, interspersed with industry history and trivia, and I'm truly grateful. Each of your anecdotes and experiences were spot on, and I found myself saying, "Oh, I see!" and many of my questions were answered. I'm surprised to find that I don't know anyone around me who's experienced using an airbrush, and even after searching books and the internet, I often found little to no success. I was always feeling my way around, but today's call really opened my eyes. If I lived close enough, I'd pop over and talk to you for a few hours. If I ever need your help again, I'll be sure to call you, even though it's a bit of a hassle. The hot weather is still continuing, so please take care of yourself, Mr. President and all your staff. Thank you so much for today.
■ I tried out the HP-84D I ordered the other day. It was so much easier to use than the Chinese-made ones I've had up until now. I'll be purchasing the pen type as well.
■ I'm very happy that I was able to purchase an Olympos product that I had almost given up on. The HP-83C has a great metallic feel. It's almost a shame to use it! I'm currently enjoying watching Takeshima-san's YouTube videos to learn how to use an airbrush. Thank you for your continued support.

This is Mr./Ms. XX from Tokyo who ordered an airbrush the other day. I received it today.
I tried out the PC102C right away and couldn't be happier with how great it feels to spray. (^^)
I'm a 62-year-old guy who's been building plastic models, mainly cars and airplanes, since elementary school (although I've been using airbrushes for much less time).
It's been a while since I bought a trigger-type airbrush, and this product is perfect! It's incredibly sensitive to operate, and the 0.4mm diameter will make painting car bodies a breeze.
My PC 100C, which I've been using for a long time and has been sitting in a drawer for a while, is still working well.
Both may be on the cheaper side of Olympos products, but their durability is astounding.
I plan to maintain them myself regularly, but if they ever get out of hand, I might turn to Mr./Ms. Takeshima for help. Thank you for your help.
Next time, I'll save up some money and buy a higher-grade Olympos handpiece (without telling my wife). Thank you for the great product.

■ Dear Total T
I'm sorry for the late reply, but today I had the opportunity to use it for the first time.
Simply put, I'm amazed at how sensitive it is, completely different from other airbrushes I've used before.
After pulling the trigger to release air, it only takes a slight pull
to start a thin layer of paint, and from there I'm impressed by how I can linearly adjust the paint width according to how hard I pull the trigger.
I thought Tamiya's previous 0.3mm brushes also allowed for delicate control, but this is completely different. It almost makes me laugh.
To put it in perspective, Tamiya brushes have a five-stage gear control: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10.
The PC102C has an infinitely variable control: 0, 0.1, 0.2... up to 10.
I'm sure the HP102C you recommended, Total T, is even more impressive.
Also, I was surprised, delighted, and grateful to see the handwritten letter included when it was shipped.
I hope to have another opportunity to purchase from you in the future, so please continue to support me!

Dear Takeshima
It arrived safely. I'm amazed. Is it okay?
Thank you for the present. And two of them...
I'm very surprised and grateful.
Of course, I'm not going to just display them, but I'm going to use them.
Currently, at 51 years old, my two most treasured items are the HP-101 and Adcon 4004, which I bought with my first paycheck after graduating from high school. I still use the regulator.
I begged the old man at the model shop to buy it for me in three installments. It was probably illegal then and still is, but I guess it was a more relaxed time. Even minors could buy it.
I use it extensively for model making and painting. I've been using it for over 30 years.
Since then, I've gradually upgraded, changing to a 4004T compressor, and then to a Yaesu capsule compressor. They still haven't broken. Anyway, the 4004 and 4004T probably won't break until I die. It's a bit tough to keep them running constantly, so I now mainly use the Yaesu capsule compressor. I've gradually acquired more airbrushes, but even so, I've always stuck with Olympos.
As in this case, I rescue handpieces from friends and acquaintances that are being treated like trash, and I want to refurbish them and make them usable, rather than just displaying them.
Each one is different, and it's fun to mix and match them.
However, since Olympos went out of business, I've been worried about parts... No matter how durable a part is, it wears out with use. Rubber parts in particular. I was worried about the supply of consumables. I don't want to use parts from other manufacturers. Genuine parts give me a different sense of security.
Thanks to Takeshima-san, that worry has been alleviated.
I watch your YouTube channel so much every day that I'm learning from it.
If I were closer, I'd definitely go there to learn the skills, but it's not that easy...
I know these are difficult times, but I look forward to seeing the world of airbrushes that Takeshima-san creates.
Thank you for this time. I'm very grateful. I hope to use your services again soon.
I apologize for any typos.
PS
Thanks to Takeshima-sama, I feel as excited as a child.
It feels like the passion of my youth is being rekindled.

Toshiya Takeshima
My name is ○○○○. I recently purchased a nozzle, needle, and air valve for the OLYMPOS-HP102B.
Thanks to you, my PCB 102B, which I purchased about 42 years ago, has been restored to perfection! Your maintenance video was very helpful!
Thank you very much. I apologize for the sudden email.

Thank you for your continued support. I just received the AG-844 and hanger.
I tried it out right away, and the trigger feel and the ease of playing were so amazing I was speechless!
Thank you so much for always providing such wonderful products. I will treasure them.
I'm sure I'll be relying on you again, so I look forward to working with you again. Thank you so much.

TOTAL-T, Mr. Takeshima
Thank you for your help this time.
I quickly replaced the push button you sent me, and I was surprised at how much a change in feel and ease of use made just by lowering it. Thanks to you, airbrushing is going to be fun again.
Thank you very much. I look forward to your continued support.

■ Reunion After 17 Years As a student, I dreamed of working in the custom paint industry. There was no social media or smartphones like we have today. When I was in high school and unsure of my career path, I researched airbrushes (painting tools that spray fine particles) on the school computer. I was so eager to try it that I took the bus with a friend to a hardware store, bought a fairly large compressor, and returned home on the bus. I fondly remember that. In the end, instead of getting a job after high school, I went to a vocational school for bodywork and painting. Even after graduation, I wasn't interested in car performance, only painting. When I was wondering whether to go into the automotive industry, the world of airbrushes that I was researching at the time was dazzlingly brilliant. There was someone truly shining in that industry. I revisited @toshiya_takeshima this time. I personally consider him a mentor. I couldn't wait any longer, so I expressed my feelings, and he suggested we go see the site. I was warmly welcomed. I took the highway bus to a nearby station, and despite it being our first meeting, they welcomed me warmly. I ended up staying the night there, showing me the real work site and teaching me about the harshness of the job, as well as the good and bad sides of it. My thoughts as a student changed. I still fondly recall the time we spent together shooting archive footage until the middle of the night. I am truly grateful to the couple for treating me to a meal and welcoming me, complete strangers. After that, I returned to my hometown and worked at a dealership, but the other day I happened to pass by my master's house. I felt sorry for not contacting them in advance, but they kindly agreed to my unexpected visit, and we chatted a little about what had happened since then. I was overcome with nostalgia, and felt a strong desire to do something to relive those days. I was truly moved when my master kindly said to me, "Please come again with your family next time." Thank you so much. Thank you for your continued support.
■ The product arrived. This is XX from Osaka. I was so surprised and happy by how luxurious it was that I was speechless. I haven't painted it yet, but the new HP-101 Custom has a low push button, which allows for a small grip, making it ideal for delicate operations. Since I'm ambidextrous, I thought the stopper on the side without the cup would be a concern, but since my eyes are drawn to the tip, it didn't bother me much. Just holding the HP-100SB in my hand, I could tell it was designed for delicate work. I'm looking forward to comparing it with the Custom. The PC-101's large, round push button is also my first, so I'd like to try different ones. The HP-8C also has a reusable cup, and I think it would be good for spraying primer. The many accessories you provided were all necessary, so I'm truly grateful for Takeshima's thoughtfulness. Thank you very much. I look forward to working with you again. I'm always touched by the sticky notes you leave with messages. This isn't an inquiry, so no replies are necessary. I'll try it out this weekend. I'm looking forward to it!

I've gradually upgraded since then to a 4004T compressor and then a Yaesu capsule compressor, but they haven't broken yet. I think the 4004 and 4004T will last me a lifetime. It's a bit difficult to keep them running constantly, so I'm currently using Yaesu capsule compressors as my main compressor.

Thank you for your time. I truly appreciate it. I hope to use your service again. Please forgive any typos. P.S. Thanks to Takeshima, I feel like a child again, immersed in the excitement. It's as if the passion of my youth has been rekindled.
■ Hello Toshiya

■ Good morning. The needles just arrived safely. I bought Olympus products nearly 40 years ago from Volks as a set, including the HP101 and 4004T compressor. I then added another HP101 and attached a 15cc cup to it. I had no particular issues, but I did replace the needles on both of them once. I continued using them without any problems after that, but was sad to hear that Olympus had gone out of business. I bought a Volks-branded Peace Compressor to try out, but the feel and balance in the hand didn't suit me, so I used it only once and put it away. After that, I wasn't able to replace the needle on the HP101, and when the tip bent slightly during cleaning, I sharpened it in my own way and have been using it ever since. Recently, I heard from someone I met while talking about plastic models that they were selling their remaining stock of Olympus products, which finally led me to your company. I'm truly grateful. Please continue to supply Olympus products. There is no other peace control that can replace this! Thank you for your continued support.
■ Thank you for your prompt response. Olympus and Total T are great manufacturers, but the president's personality is what really matters: he's a professional with extensive experience in airbrushes and spray guns, and doesn't pander to any particular manufacturer or model. (Sorry for being so rude.) I respect him. Thank you. P.S. Regarding the rubber O-ring, I purchased it as a spare. From XX.
