Scott:
Got my blast cabinet through TiP in Ohio. They advertise in Hemmings,
etc.
Prices are OK and service is great. I'm in VA too and I ordered my cabinet on
a Tuesday, it showed up UPS on Thursday and I was blasting on Friday. Highly
recommended. Oh, and there blast media tends to be a few bucks cheaper than
everyone else I've seen.
For shop tools, air tools, etc. try Harbor Freight, but make sure you
get high
quality stuff (Ingersall-Rand, etc.) - although my everyday air tools were
bought at Price Club in a "5 for $99" special. I used Harbor Freight for my
super IR impact wrench to supplement the wimpy one I got in the special deal,
plus for parts washer, presses, etc. Lots of tool suppliers and what's cheap
(or on sale) in one catalog may be expensive in another. Eastwood and
especially Griot tend to be on the high end of the scale. Bye the way, where
are you in VA? I'm in Manassas
