I’ve found a useful item for modelers in some frozen meal entrées, such as Healthy Choice Café Steamers.
These contain a great little strainer about the size of a plate. This is perfect for a modeler to place over a sink drain when washing and rinsing airbrush parts to prevent losing them. The strainer features a slightly curved bottom that produces good, complete contact with the drain opening.
