@DavidBarkey thats my issue too, I’d love to have one but I have no idea where I would put it!

@propane1 Thats a great idea! Looks like he did a really good job building it!

David, I'm sure you know but just a reminder to seal up all the inside seams and rivets well with sealant so the dust doesn't leak out while in use. I haven't used mine in a while. I've been experimenting with my electrolysis tank. Nothing can compare to clean blasted metal though that's for sure.

I have a large shop vac( dust extractor that I will use with it . But yah after I make sure all is how I want it I am going to coat the inside with automotive stone guard to seal the seams and protect the metal interior . It is a cheap off shore one , so some upgrades are needed . If it was a Quality piece it would have been 3-4 time the cost and weighed more than I can move .

see do . He is having a Blast but the vac. is a little load so wears the muffs . The shop coat is for show .

Awesome!

He did 4 parts yesterday . Then whet out after supper and built a cardboard hood over the viewing glass to get rid of the reflection of exterior light . It works really good . He has to stand on a couple of 4x4s for now .
