I succumbed to just taking big parts to a blaster. Little stuff I got a small benchtop cabinet for.
Even tried one of those siphons that fit onto a pressure washer. Wet sand isnt as messy, so I thought. Wrong. Its a mess. And airborn sand particles arent good for the lungs. The blaster charges me .. I dont know, $40 or $60 per hour, but an hour to them can make some serious progress. +1 on the leafblower - blow my shop out regularly and beats trying to sweep it (especially the dust settled in all the crannies. |

Any chance you can post a pic and refresh my memory? I have one of those big grey totes out by the shed that I could use. Good idea.

Gene,
Pretty much what I did but I did not use the top.I made one out of 3/4"plywood and made it 6" taller and put a larger piece of glass on it.

i saw some nice homebuilt ones on youtube,yet another project for me... i used a large stand up glass beader doing antique auto restorations,got spoiled. one thing noteworthy is the different types of media. NEVER use sand in one of these,plastic media may take a bit longer to remove rust,but there is very little dust. makes seeing what your doing way easier. as far as sandblasting goes,we had a concrete silo full of sand,i wore a protective headpiece with fresh air being pumped in. i think the blast hose was 1 1/2,running 120 psi. it would knock you down from the pressure if you wern,t careful. dont miss those hot summer days blasting a chassis with 50 plus years of rust and crud on it.

Red neck one LMAO
I wish I have picture of the one I did with an horizontal 60G compressor tank. Any cabinet need to vented otherwise you see NADA, a garage vacuum cleaner is a very common mod.

sand blaster
I like EricR 's idea to blast in but most days we get rain here so I built a 6x12 lean to onto my shop,with a steel bathtub for a reservoir to hold my sand and a window fan ,lights and a paint mask under the harbor freight hood.But for the larger items we have an industrial blast company nearby.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
