Default Homemade Blasting Cabinet...

Alternate titles... "The reason I keep half the junk in my garage..." OR "Pre stimulus, depression era blasting cabinet." OR "Things to do instead of wet sanding"

Appliance box - scrap
Glass - scrap
Light - laying around
Window wrap tape - $20 (left over from another job)
strip of metal - scrap
zip ties - laying around
Gravity blaster gun - $15
Media - $25

Having some other Corvette related project other than wet sanding...

PRICELESS!





In this next shot, you can actually see a Corvette door hinge!





I hope everybody is having as much fun as I am today. Perhaps some of you are actually driving your Corvettes.

Someday...

Hi John,
Will you be posting your address so we can begin sending you parts to be blasted? This is too good an idea to be sitting idle.
Do you have a spare dustbuster to hook up to it? And how about yellow Playtex gloves from the grocery store?
Regards,
Alan

A disposable blasting cabinet ... how unique!

Be care of patent infringement.

I like it!
