Hi Niko
Great work - where did you get your sandblasting machine how big a compressor do you need.
Cheers

Hi Pete, the unit is easy got off ebay but the big problem is air flow you need a massive compressor to run the unit . I have a 200lrt tank 20 cfm unit to run it, anything lower will take you ages to blast.
