HF sandblaster
Here are the mods I've done. Pretty simple stuff. Could do more but who has time for that?
Regulator, not really a mod, but required nonetheless.
Power for small halogen lights. They get nice and warm and help keep things dry. The plug inserted into the outlet is the shop vac connected to the back.
Here's the metering valve. probably 25-30 bucks in parts from the plumbing aisle. Works AWESOME.
Here is a shot of the material at the bottom. There's about a cup down there, a cup inside the valve/tube etc, and the ledges/sides inside the actual cabinet.
If I were to change anything else, and i might, it would be to make a smooth transition fro the media to fall back into the bottom. A lot gets stuck.
I also have but not shown, the kit from Eastwood that includes the gun, hoses, and foot pedal. The pedal is nice and a "hand saver" to say the least.
Incidentally, though it looks like an HF unit, It's not. At least I've never seen a HF unit that was welded at the seems. It's very close and the metal is thicker. Almost makes me wonder if it's a US made unit that was copied by the Chinese.
