Building a Sand Blasting Cabinet for Blaster parts.

[Mcaroonie]

As I am a NEWB I have two purposes for this post

1. trying to perfect my picture posting for when I Start 2001/ 2003 Rebuild

2. Showing a blast cabinet that i built this week for the rebuild

I got a cabinet from GE like this, it used to be for a clean room:

I am re-purposing it for a sand blasting cabinet for when I Rebuild a Blaster this coming weekend.

Here are the pictures from the work in progress:

Lining the back and bottom with metal:

Cheap Harbor Freight Blast Media Gun:

Kid trying on gear:

Trial run on stock pipe:

I know that is too small and if it works out well I might increase the size to do the frame.

Thanks for looking

Even a small one is handy to have.

Very nice. if you need blaster cabinet parts check out TP Tools & Equipment They might be a bit more pricey but they sale quality stuff that you won't spend more time working on than using. I've has some nightmares trying yo get siphon systems to work right.

Nice clean room cabinet.Great starting point,almost like it was made for it. You can buy replacement gloves for blasting cabinets.I bet they fit right on there. Nice to see one out of metal and not some cheap china made 3/8 plywood Keep up the good work.

I would have built one like it if I hadn't already bought a cabinet when I first seen it.

I dig the 55 gallon drum blast can, and the chicken coop that is a cool one, did it come stock with a chicken? If I had not done a sand blaster, I would have done a powder coating cabinet.
