i was looking at getting that, i'm too cheap to buy media though.
i was gonna go to the beach and grab a 5 gal bucket of sand, but some people told me it's not a good idea.
i figured i'd make a decent sized sand box in the back yard and lay the parts in the sand then just blast away.
let me know how it works out, what are you gonna use for media?

 

I got a 25? lb of glass beads from HF for like $15 or something.

I ended up riveting the gloves to the box b/c I'm impatient.

afters:

 

did you use a HF riveter?
looks good, but you missed a couple spots.

 

yeah I'm a lazy ---- plus I've got a mental thing where I can't finish things 100%. Riveter was from who knows where but yeah most likely HF

Went pretty quick. Cleaned the wheel in 2-3 minutes and maybe 10 minutes on the plate. Woulda been much faster but my compressor holds like a teaspoon of compressed air.

 

dont use sand, first you got to strain it and make sure its dry, plus it scratches aluminum pretty easily.
if you use a cabinet then you can recover the media, i recommend the glass beads, but make sure you got eye protection because that ---- hurts when its in your eyes

 

I made basically the same idea out of cardboard a while back. I should have posted that mofoker Nice, looks professional! lol

 

jb weld?
i like it. hmmmmm my compressor will just run that...
sure wish those HF HVLP spray guns could coat a car. my civic needs to be painted fierce

 

thats awesome man, i'm going to hf this weekend. i'll have to check it out
