Sandblaster intro?

Would anyone be able to show me how to use the sandblaster? I’ve used one (1) before, but am by no means an expert. I can try to follow Joe’s instructions from this post: Sand Blaster - Could Someone Show Me The Ropes? - #2 by JoeN but I’d prefer to have someone who’s used it before point out what’s what.

Does anyone know offhand how big the cabinet is? Big enough to accommodate a 42" long part (1"x3" tube, so only the length seems like a potential issue.

I’ll be around much of the day on Friday (29 Nov 2024), if anyone happens to be in the shop.

I don’t think 42" will fit. You might be able to cram it in on a diagonal, but that would be very awkward.

We’ve been meaning to make a video about using it and maybe add it to the MSS class, but we’ve been making modifications that would slightly alter the video.

I may be around on Friday, but it really is as simple as flipping the air switch on the side, turning on the power, putting your hands into the gloves, then stepping on the pedal to start spraying. If nothing comes out, bang on the hopper on the bottom.
