Cheapie harbor freight blast cab. Sealed all the seams with silicone, added a home made bottom siphon and dust collector, LED light, Now this thing runs and cycles on about 3 pounds of sand. You can run it for 10 minutes or a hour and clearly see what your doing.

Where did you get your siphon feed from? I have one of these cabinets but it needs help in the flow area.


Thanks,

The best part of this is, you can put a \"couple\" pounds of sand in it and it cycles. Not 50 pounds....
