I am thinking about an hvlp spray gun to finish some projects. I know by the price these are totally different machines. The Earlex costs nearly 3 times the amount. For the hobby woodworker that would like to spray some finishes, is the Earlex worth 2 1/2 times as much? If so, let me know. I have no problem spending money on quality things, but if I can do with less expensive, so much the better, especially for the wife! If there are other units I should consider, please let me know.
