sand blasting

[boston_jake01]

I'm not sure if this is the place for this thread, but I was wondering what type of sand blaster people recommend? I have a pressure sander and I cann't stand it it always needs to be shaken to work it always seems to ruuning out of sand and then i shake it and it then it works for alittle while, and then it starts all over again.
Thanks

Haha, I had one of those. I sent it to the scrap metal yard (for real). I bought one of these and it worked awesome for a couple of years until someone stole it. Ok the link doesn't exactly work right, so search for part # 40002. http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/w...970_7960_7960l

I didn't realize it, but yes they do. The first one is comparable to the one I had. It is a 100lb instead of 90lb. Either way you definately want one made like this as opposed to the second link if you can afford it. IMO it it worth the extra $.
