agree

The "out of bucket" ones don't work that well. I've used a pressure pot that did. Also have a cabinet from Harbor. If you use the pressurized unit, don't forget a respirator (especially if you attempt to use silica sand) and plenty of stuff to plug other body cavities.  Wink

We have a 40# blaster from Harbor Frieght it works real good , But it really eats up the air. For sand we get lowes play sand and spread it out inside and get it dry and it works good. We do the blasting over some truck bed mats and reuse the sand . sweep it up and screen it .
