My son built this a few years ago. Big enough for most shop parts.

Blasting cabinets are great. When I purchased mine I bought a bench top on clearance. Couldn't pass up the price. When I put it together I decided to pull the chute assembly down to the bottom and made a stand to hold it. Gained 8" of height when I did it. Noel you got a nice one there.

:51: and I made the 2 hour round trip to Barrie and back stopping at a couple of stores . 4 hours of "some assembly required " and it is together . By that time I was done , time for a rest . We will fire it up tomorrow . I opted for LED rope light instead of the light "purchased separately " . I found use others one in the past the was too many shadows . Hopefully having a halo of light around the top will solve this . Now that I have it , I need to find a spot in the shop for it before weighting it down with sand . :headbash: Almost didn't buy it because I don't know where I am going to put it .
