Ha thanks all. I think it does come with a light inside. But either way, that has to go in so you can see what you're blasting.
I am not new to sand blasting. I bought a Sear 40 pound hopper type sand blaster many decades ago and used the heck out of it. I even made some temporary cardboard cabinets, for lack of a better word, and used a trouble-shooting mechanics light hung inside. I even used a sand blasting hood over my head and arms. But regardless, you'd still get sand in places I would rather not have sand. However, this new cabinet should help sand blasting and not getting sand everywhere....I hope!
I plan to watch all the YouTube videos on this cabinet and then proceed to assembling it. Seems I always have something to blast and set it aside until I feel like getting sand all over me. Then I setup and blast everything at one time. And then feel miserable until I can shower it all off. Maybe this setup will stop all that.
I started using the black diamond media that tractor supply sells and that stuff is amazing compared to actual sand. It seem to continue cutting paint and rust over and over and over until I loose so much of it, that I have to buy more. And it seem to have less dust generated as well. So we will see. I also want to buy a bag of baking soda (
Sodium bicarbonate) to blast carbs and more delicate items like that instead of sand pitting them with a rougher finish that the sand leaves.
I may snap pictures along the way as I assemble the cabinet and post them if everybody thinks that would be a good thread to add here. :noidea:
