Subject: [Shop-talk] Blast cabinet, media
I=92m thinking of using some Christmas money on a bench top blast cabinet. =
I realize the small size will limit what I can blast, but that is about al=
l the space I=92m willing to allocate, and it should handle most of what I =
would be looking at blasting.
So a some questions for the list:
1. For those of you with blast cabinets, do you find yourself using it mor=
e than you expected? My first project would be cleaning up some suspension=
parts (mostly paint removal). I think enough projects come along that it =
would be worth having one, but I would love to be surprised to find additio=
nal uses.
2. What is a good all purpose, reusable media to use? I would mostly be r=
emoving paint, and some surface rust.
3. The first parts I would be cleaning have some machined surfaces (thread=
ed holes, tapers, etc). How careful do you need to be to protect those are=
as? And what if the best way to do that? One of the parts will be a strut=
tube, which includes the stub axle. I=92m thinking that wrapping that are=
a in duct tape might be a good idea.
Thanks!
