Overview

This was created due to a need for a sand blasting cabinet for a very cheap expense. Followed an idea posted on Instructables.com and implemented some modifications for my purpose. I installed a filtered outlet port as well as mounted a regulator/filter on the outside. There is a feed line for the air and a feed line for the actual blasting media of choice. So far I've worked with aluminum oxide and pla-sand.

Features

  • Portable
  • Ease of use and construction
  • Easy to reclaim used media for multiple blastings
  • Easy to modify for future add-ons

Implemented

  • Sand blasting cabinet made from storage tub
