Sandblasting talk

Using the freezer as a cabinet is very slick. Had a friend who used to keep all his auto paint and welding rods in an old fridge because it was air tight.

One issue I have with the small HF cab is the sand piles up on one side and doesnt fall down to the suction. I may build a shaker for it or just buy one. I dont know if this is an issue with the larger HF cabs or not.

Did your friend keep the refrigerator on to keep the paint cool? Cause I can see the advantage of that for sure. As for welding rods, it depends on what they are but 7018 stick rods for example need to be kept dry so usually they are kept in a rod oven at around 150*f. Pulling them out of a cold fridge would defeat the purpose as they would condense moisture on them.
