Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tazza" data-source="post: 14361" data-attributes="member: 82">As most of you will already know, I'm re-building a 751. I needed to get it all sandblasted but to get it "professionally" done they wanted about $1,000. With the help of some of the members of this board they gave me all the info i needed to build one.I ended up using an old LPG cylinder from a fork lift and some old gas pipe and fittings i had. So far it has only cost me the sand i put in the pot. I haven't gotten around to mounting it on wheels, i mainly wanted to set it up so i knew if it would work, which it does!The biggest problem is the air it requires! i have 2 compressors setup in parallel for a total of 28CFM. With a 1/8" nozzle i can maintain 90PSI, the compressors run flat out at that pressure. I have an old 2 pot V style compressor here, but i need to hook it up to an engine. I don't know what sort of flow it would provide, but it looks pretty big.Piccies, i know it doesn't look great, but it sure does work!<img src="http://users.tpg.com.au/tazza_/sblaster/100_0005.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://users.tpg.com.au/tazza_/sblaster/100_0006.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://users.tpg.com.au/tazza_/sblaster/100_0007.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />If interested, higher rez pictures are available here: <a href="http://users.tpg.com.au/tazza_/sblaster/" target="_blank">http://users.tpg.com.au/tazza_/sblaster/</a></blockquote>
