DIY fluidized bed?

[Bernert]

I am going to be coating a bunch of small parts for a hotrod project in one color and was wondering if anyone had suggestions or plans for building a small fluidized bed.

Any input is appriciated.

Fluidized Hopper

Check out item 7508784520 on Ebay. This has a 6" ID, which should be ok for small parts.

Can I run those off any compressor with a moisture trap and regulator?

Fluidized Hopper

I use this hopper to supply my Nordson gun (multiple hoppers for color changes), but have also used it as a fluidized hopper. I run a water filter before my paint air system and a low pressure regulator before the fluidizing hopper. I run 5 to 7 psi on average. Preheat temperature determines paint thickness (hotter = thicker). Hopes this helps.
