If you have the room in your shop for a larger cabinet, yes, buy or
build one. But if your shop is like mine, 10 lbs in a 2 lb sack, then
the portable one is great. For big things I have a pressure blaster.
I also have to do all my blasting outside of the shop. No room in the
shop to set up the blast cabinet, and vac. :( Really need a bigger
garage.
