Shop Talk,
I can't remember now who posted the message about TIP and their pressure
blasters/blast cabinets, but I do thank you. A couple weeks ago I
bought one of their "38 Special" pressure blasters, and just from
reading the documentation which accompanied it, and from speaking with
them about blasting, I have learned so much.
I re-piped my shop according to their specs (but used 3/4 copper instead
of iron pipe), bought their 1/2 inch regulator and water separator, 1/2
inch hose. I just blasted my flagstone sidewalk and porch, used 200
pounds of sand, and my 6 hp C/H could keep up using a 1/8 inch nozzle
(it ran hard, but that "radiator" we talked about that I built works so
well that all the water condenses in the compressor tank and the lines
and separator have little/no moisture).
Anyway, I just wanted to thank whoever it was who suggested TIP--fine
products, great support and outstanding documentation.
thank you,
shook
