the blast cabinet has been working ok. last week it would not fire the  
media. the media was glass beads. i have only about 40-60 hours on this  
cabinet.
so now I have put a new gun on.
put in new media. black beauty slag (better for the lungs I'm told)
put in a new water separator
if I feather the gun (fire, off, fire, off, fire, off) I get blast of media  
for a short time but quite a few periods when no media will come out.
took the gun out and fired it empty, and I can feel suction at the end of  
the pick up tube.
if I connect an air duster and open it across glass I cant see any  water. 
usually doing this will show some condensation on the glass if there is  excess 
water in the line. I think!
any ideas?
thanks
