Hi Jim I have recently sold a vapor blast unit and curse the day as you say the speed and finish are superb I look forward to seeing your build list has I have the same sand blast cabinet as you are using and was thinking of making it into a Vapor blast unit but the three in one is a fantastic setup. PS I just did the ABS removal on. BMW R1150R as per your video👍👍

Hello Jim. I am very interested in your ultimate parts washer. Would you be willing to sell plans and parts list for your cabinet? Or some pictures showing how it all goes together. I wouldn't need a wiring diagram. Thank you for making the video.

We need a through walk-through on how to build this for those of use who are less resourceful than you. Fantastic work!

Back rewatching this 8 months later and it’s still amazing how cool this video is. Give us the diy and parts list!

New subscriber here. WOW ! How did I miss this over the last three years? I have been researching building something like this and I am so happy I found your channel. This is incredible. I suppose it has seen some heavy work and I definitely want to t see how it stood up.

i worked at the biggest engine rebuilding plant in north america. he had a couple of engine cleaning booth. they worked like this: -rotating sprayer like a dishwasher spinning inside -boiling and steaming water inside the cabinet for about 1hour -we added what looked like either dishwashing or clothes washing powder inside -the engine part were on a stainless rack that would rotate inside

Would love to see the other video regarding how it was built, etc!

This is my new favorite vapor blasting cabinet build, that thing is an absolute masterpiece. Thanks for sharing.

Simple rotary switch like you find in a DIY car wash, a power supply, a plc, a few motorized ball valves, a few LEDs and a bit of programming and you are off to the races

Awesome Video! Love the machine. I'm getting ready to turn my soda blaster into a vapor blaster for my restorations.

This is amazing. I built a vapor blast cabinet and was given a commercial parts washer that I use a bucket heater with but this is a whole other level.

That rubber idea is one of those kiss moments you go WTF did i not think of that, going to use that for my both my dry and vapor blaster. Also the post cleaning process is well thought out it always pains me trying to get those few bits of glass off after a clean. Think at somestage i will build an all in one machine as saves so much space. :) Great video

Awesome job. I assume you have a diverter for the drain for each cleaning process?

Love the idea. Nice job! I think I need to do this. One suggestion...use water tight switches installed INSIDE the cabinet to actuate solenoid valves to change from one operation to the next. No need to remove your hands from the gloves over and over.

You are not the first person to suggest this! Personally don't think it's such a great idea. It's such a harsh environment inside the cabinet even the best quality switches wouldn't last with the heat and high pressure. I'm already on my second set of high quality billet aluminium waterproof lights!

@steventimme5268

@@SuperbikeSurgeryTV True watertight switches aren't connected directly to the switch. It's just a mechanical linkage with a rubber seal connected to a remote switch. Even if it did leak, the liquid wouldn't harm anything. I can send a drawing if you're interested.

For someone who has OCD. that was an excellent therapy session. Thanks

You did an absolutely perfect work building this cabinet! Couldn't be more jealous! Impressive!

Jim, what an awesome bit of kit! I have been looking at a blasting cabinet and watching this video has just made my mind up into doing something similar. I am looking to build a workshop in the coming months and this is definitely going to to be included in the plans. I look forward to watching the videos once you've edited them on how you constructed it but, in the meantime, I will do some research on the individual components so I won't be completely pilfering your idea. Keep up the great work as it inspires me to do more and more myself.

I’m well impressed Jim. Love it

Great cleaning machine, I wish I had one!!! Great credit to your skills..

Absolutely amazing machine, first cabinet I’ve seen that can do all, bravo.

Best DIY version I have seen. Just about to start building my own….. damn it, now I want the hot wash included 😂 well done bloke, thanks for sharing. “Nuffys Builds” complete approval 🏍🇦🇺👍🏻

I’m really impressed. As someone who has about 20 years in as a technician I really enjoyed watching the thought and consideration of every addition! If this gets out enough there is sure a high chance of possible endeavors out there for you. Great job pal

Wow!! What a great piece of kit doing all that in one unit.

This is absolutely amazing. You thought of everything!

Just do solenoid or motor valves with rocker or push button switches first man lol. The rubber covered rocker switches are pretty nice and would be suitable for this thing I would think. Im going to build an automated or some type of parts washer soon. Been collecting parts for awhile. Nice job man

Hi Jim have you made the video on the build of the machine yet? Thanks

Absolutely brilliant

Awesome setup mate! I got myself a sand blasting cabinet and was planning on turning it into a vapour blaster.. be good to see your list of parts as well; I might head to your Patreon page for that. Keep up the good work Matt

Lots of great ideas. Thanks for sharing

Perfect machine!! Very well done!! Thanks for sharing!!👌👌 When will you put next video about it?!??? 😅😁😁

Thank you very much. Very professional approach and inspiring!

Brilliant. Many thanks for sharing.

Jim ur a clever man. And im sure u have worked hard all ur workin life.to come up with smarter ways to work. Is very good.so u provide the best service to ur customers.

Does an amazing job, really did look like new.

Bravo Jim

Looks good Jim it will certainly stand you in good stead and make rebuilds quicker to turn around. Dont forget to label your buttons before you press the wrong one.

I think you missed your calling! You should be selling these things ready to go! Nice work!

Brilliant bit of kit that.

I’m loving your cleaning station, and am in the process of designing building something similar. One thing I’ll add is some magnets! Your door flap, a few magnets to hold it up out of the way for load/unload as well as when down. Some magnets for the gloves to hold them out of the way when desired as well.

This is a badass build you done... 🍻🍻🍻

My dream garage workshop would have one of these.......

Outstanding Jim , it's been a while since we see a video .

I just found your channel and this build. This is epic. Skookum is a great Canadian word from AVE. Skookum would definitely describe this it Brilliant

Yes Jim we love that, time saving will pay for itself eventually, great. #detailingworld #vapourblasting #sgs

I thought your van was snazy, but this is friggin awesome!

I would buy this in a heartbeat, as long as I had the cash on hand.

Awesome!!

have you tried, after cleaning it all up, use stainless ball media to peen the surface? the idea is that, that exhaust side in particular looked quite porous (due to surface corrosion of aluminium), and glass bead at best just cleans it up, but stainless might be heavy enough to level it out, make it smoother, less prone to catching dirt and corroding?

Very nice!

Mate that is super.

Savage job mate, fair play to ya

Thanks!

Can you provide a 'build your own' document for this vapor blasting cabinet?

Brilliant!!!!

Awesome job, was wondering what tyoe of filter you are using on the washing side and what type of cleaner were you using? Thank you for the great video.

I envy your setup! PLC is a good idea, something like easyrelay or Siemens, easy to program in ladder. Could even automate some of the process. Cheers for sharing.

fantastic machine just what i need Any chance of a build video or some pointers on plumbing please

Was there ever an update to this video? Did you ever finish the upgrades? How has it faired over the past years?

Nice thing. well done

hello amazing work !!! the best machine i never seen !! do you have videos of the assembly and the list of accessories you used please ? many thanks

A computer to control your valves is a very complicated solution to a challenge that could be solved by a well written index card instruction sheet. Brass valves will last longer

Looks amazing. Any updates on a build or more detailed video? 🎉🎉🎉

Could you please make a build video getting into the details of how you built it? How do you prevent the slurry from contaminating the degreaser? Does it drain into sewage? Are the drains separated?

Link to Facebook not updated. Fantastic build thanks for sharing.

Enjoyed the tour of your setup. Do all the processes drain to the same tank?

Oh my god! You sir are a genius. I have been looking at various video’s recently on making your own vapour cabinet, but this just blows them all out of the water! Have you changed anything or improved it further, would love to know. Plus if you have a list of parts available I’m sure you would get your hand bitten off for it. Well done Jim.

I’m sure you can even cut the mat in two or three just make each part slightly bleeding on each other and i’ll be easier to put and remove item from it. But whoa just amazing job until then I was still hesitating paying big money for one from famous vb brand or build one myself, now I’ll definitely go to the diy version !

That's so good you could spin off another business manufacturing them 👏

A plc on a parts washer. Who would have thought. Anyway, brilliant results! Btw, whats the gt85 your talking about in the end? Your using it to conserve parts?

well done mate! Ciao ;))

You are genius😊😊😊😊

Would love to see the follow up video on your design.

Everything you did is very impressive ! Yet after trying myself and watching at the cost of everything in the end converting a dry blast cabinet can be so cheap that I would probably make three separate design with three different cabinets, which would drastically avoid cross contamination between all the media, and also help with the maintenance as all the designs are not mixed, but if you don’t have space clearly you did a « monster » here 😂

Be great to get an idea of how you've connected up the three tanks - I'm building a large cabinet with all of these, possibly with three tanks (Wash, fine and super-fine GB. if you have a few more details on your design / layout I'd love to see them :-)

How are you separating the drain between degreaser, slurry & cold-water rinse, are you using a 3-way ball valve? Do you have a build video or plans that i could purchase so i could build my own.

I didn't see a follow up video. Was one released for paetron followers that details the build more?

Hello, can you tell me where I can get a tank to heat the water as you indicate in the explanation at minute 4:33, I really appreciate the information.

Hi Jim, did you post the parts list to Patreon? I wasn't able to find it or any build pictures. Cheers!

man what a washer, if you publish plans for your build I'd love to try build something similar.

This video is nearly two years old. Sadly you didn't release the build video you announced (3:40).

I really enjoyed this! May I ask what medium you use for vapor blasting and also just to clarify your last bath w air, was that just warm water or GT85? What’s GT85?

i wonder how it would not just instantly start to rust. i degrease, then sandblast. after that if a drop of water hits the part (cast iron mostly) instantly starts browning (rusting)

I could see thew un derside of the cylinder had after you air blasted the degreaser at it. Bonus that its not solvent based, noice.
