Awesome as always ! Supercut scrubs up so well raw ! Might cut and clear coat mine seems a waste to paint some areas and mine has alloy sides

Thanks legend😀. I couldn’t agree more. You are right. the alloy super cut would look incredible raw. maybe colour with polished Webbing? Now that would look sick 👌🏻

Yep, de-greasing is pretty important mate. saves crap from getting on gloves too.important if painting stuff later. have a look at Electronic Rust Removal.A lot of different setups.can be really handy for restoring stuff.pretty easy to setup. Great video mate. Enjoyed watching it. top stuff.

hi thanks for video i modified my cabinet by making it wider from front to back so i could fit 16inch mag wheel in cabinet but never thought of lowering the shelf now i can stand wheel upright thanks for the idea. was a bugger of a job getting it apart but worth the trouble

@@rustyinspirations i have been modifying the y shaped Chinese gun made new air jet and nozzle uses less air and better blasting , to do a very bad commodore 1982 model 15 inch around 5 to 10 minutes

Very tempted to buy one of these have used a few different industrial ones in engine reco shops i worked in there are the dry type and another that also uses water that flows through with the glass beads, this type tends to be much cleaner when doing cyl heads etc as the beads don't tend to stick in the oily threads etc. Most places actually used line marking glass beads as they were a lot cheaper plus running lower pressures tends not tto smash the beads to powder as quickly 60 psi would certainly be much better than 120. The ones that use water are also good for building forearms as they have a hell of a kick.

Thanks for an awesome video on the modification of your Tool Pro sandblasting cabinet. I have purchased all of the parts to modify my Tool Pro cabinet as per your instructions. My wonderful partner has just finished making a mobile stand for it, he does the metal work, and I do the furniture restoration. I was wondering if you would be able to help me out by telling me how you wired up your two external lights and how you fitted them to the top of your cabinet please?

That's awesome and I'm glad you found value in the vid😃. I'd have to look at it when I get home to remind my self 😂 the lights where wired to come on with the original switch. If you send me an email to rustyins@gmail.com I could send you some pictures when I return home if you like 😃👍🏻

Maaaate, I too have this same Blaster and I think i bought it on sale for roughly the same price.. Its a great thing but average at best without a decent air compressor. I already had decent compressor however if you were needing to buy one as well its not worth the expense (in my opinion) I have not modified mine in any way however after watching your video I think i'm definitively going to get hacking into it. I like having the ability to blast items as I go and at my own pace. Great review..

@@rustyinspirations I have added a shop vacuum, the same as what you have done.. I have also added extra lights, I put LED strip light on the inside which seem to do the trick but lights on the outside is a good idea.. Without doing those two things, it’s more or less unusable because you simply cannot see anything..
