Affordable Home Sandblast Setup - Test - And First Impressions
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- In this video I show you guys the new sandblast cabinet that I bought from Amazon.com and how to set it up in your home like I have, or a garage/shop is even better. I will link as many of the parts I used to assemble this setup below in the description.
Overall the setup was straightforward and simple but it took me awhile to find all the air hose connections and some of the other parts I added to this cabinet. As you guys will see the cabinet worked well on this test part and I’m happy to say that it was totally worth it for my first blaster! I have some improvements to make on it and will make another video further reviewing the cabinet and hopefully I can make it work even better.
I will also be doing some at home cerakote and powdercoat videos soon if that interests any of you guys. After all that is why I got this sandblaster and most people as well use it for paint prep.
For my Yz450f fans, a new video will be coming soon! Going to be rebuilding the rear brake master cylinder and caliper.

That is a well built well equipped and sturdy cabinet . It is also very expensive but well worth it. I found a Harbor freight sand blast cabinet for $50 and I have been upgrading it with incredible upgrades and I am looking for another one to convert to a vapor honing cabinet. Really great video and awesome cinematics!!!
Thanks for your help with this thing. I found your channel when I searched for setup info on this particular cabinet. Mine arrived in the mail today and just like the Amazon reviews, the legs were all bent up and the plexiglass face was both bent and broken. I took my mallet to the legs and straightened them out, and bent the top back into place. The plexiglass still has a crack in the corner, but it’s not worth my time returning it. The next one will probably be broken too. I’ll live with it. My impression with this thing is that it’s cheaply made and COULD not work properly. I say ‘could’ because, as you demonstrated, spending time and a bit of money on proper setup will make this thing work the way it should. I think the average consumer should understand that they’re not going to get a perfect sandblaster when they spend $160 on this thing. It’ll take another $100+ on fittings and accessories, plus some engineering, to make this thing viable. You get what you pay for. Other quality setups were in the thousands. As a hobbyist, this is going to work fine for me, just as it is for you.
Absolutely, you are right about all of that. I am still using mine even with all the constant annoying issues. I have blasted over 100 parts by now 👍🏼 does what I need as I am not doing this for a business. Thanks for leaving this comment.
I run mine with a harbor freight 20 gallon 4.0 CFM and no issues so far. Works great
No kidding, that is awesome 👍
I was looking at a Kobalt 4.5 cfm. Any problems a year later with underpowering your cabinet? My goal is to deeply engrave glass wine bottles. Thanks.
@@sebumgold3108 capacity doesn’t matter. Anything would work. But the smaller the compressor, the shorter the runtime
@@TylerHankss 🙏 thank you.
I have exactly every problem that you have in this video. The foggy, leaking, and empty sand in the middle of the tank after few sandblasting. I wonder if you ever find a solution to all this? Great video and I’m glad im not the only one who having this problem because i thought i already prepare everything right.
Never found any solutions but rather learned how to work around the problems haha. Yeh this thing even if it is set up properly will have all those problems. I will be upgrading at some point to a better blaster
His compressor is too weak
Could buy something that vibrates and adhere it underneath of the blaster so.the sand can vibrate down towards the center
No sand at the bottom i solved by dumping 50lb of glass beads into mine.
Good video man! That’s a nice compressor for sure.
Adam Paganelli thanks bro I am really liking the setup!
Damn Adam what happened you’re not posting videos anymore
A single use 60 gallon compressor?
Use your quick connectors so you can air up tires or run impacts, etc!
Yeh i definitely will get some quick connections cuz i do run air tools sometimes 👍🏼
Nice video I've work as a mechanic all my life and you definitely want to use eye and lung protection when blasting take care.
Ok thank you for the advice I didn’t know it was that harmful!
Great vid man. A better seal around your vac hose will help keep most of that dust out. ✌️
Nice vid as always!
Arctix thanks i really appreciate that!
So. Your compressor is rated at 132.25 cfm. The S is scfm stands for squared. Overkill is an understatement here but if you ever want to open a body shop, you’re one step in the right direction 😂
I promise, there is nothing overkill about this compressor. If you know anything about these blasters, they run a crap ton of air, my compressor works hard to keep up. I've been blasting for 2 years now.
@@FULLTHROTTLEFILMZ You said it yourself. Your blast cab requires 10cfm and you’re giving it over 10x that. Overkill if I’ve ever heard it. I’d also encourage you to take a look at the comments from a couple years ago stating that a 16 cfm compressor works solid for this setup.
@@UnsolvedMysteries4u im done you are a clown
@@FULLTHROTTLEFILMZ another snowflake calling someone a clown without being able to justify their own reasoning 😂 get a grip buddy and grow up. Just because someone doesn’t agree with you doesn’t mean they’re wrong. But your immediate reaction says more about you then me bud, go you!
@@UnsolvedMysteries4u 😂 have a great one hoss. My day only getting better. Back to my job PROFESIONALLY POWDERCOATING
Not a bad set up! Glad you got it
Jordan Morgan yeh not bad, I’m happy with it thanks man!
Why not just hook up the regulator to the compressor itself? That way you can change the pressure for any air tool you may be using the compressor for.
Jeremy Whitehurst I have another small compressor for doing tires and running paint guns so this one is set up just for the sandblast actually
I need to do this myself! Good video💪🏽
Krister Viste it was a very simple setup and works great actually, beside the box leaking some sand! Get what ya pay for I guess.
FULL THROTTLE FILMZ One more think I would do is take a clear plastic film/wrap underneath the glass. Because after a few rounds, the glass will be difficult to look through. Just to protect the glass for ever👍🏽
It comes with like 10+ extra plastic covers I can keep changing so the top stays clear! Forgot to show that
Hello, your video was great .,.Did you ever do the follow up?
How would it handle baking soda?
That's exactly like mine but mine says to use 10 lbs max of media. These are pretty decent cabinets but will probably require a bunch of mods and fixes to make you happy.
Ahh I have been using too much media in mine! Yeh it isn't great but it has worked for me for awhile now. Just upgraded to a larger more quality unit now! So it should be a good upgrade.
Iv been putting this off so long because my biggest compressor is 20 or 30 gals..i dont recall at thr moment. Have you used any glass bead? I hear you it leaves a cleaner surface. Def need to just pull the trigger an get the air comp and cabinet
Very good video. Thanks for sharing. Can you help me with some information, here in my country i can't find this case to buy.
I will manufacture a cabinet. (DIY)
a friend from Brazil.
Thanks.
I bought the huge floor model one at Harbor Freight.... Same accessories as you have for that tiny one....... $169 all day........
Damn you scored on that!
That compressor is overkill😂
You dont use lock tite.. teflon tape bud
You are right, thanks
Won't let as much dust out of you seal up where the vacuum connects
That's one sexy looking set up my dude 👌
Hey is that compressor 120v and 7cfm?
Its 220v and i think 10cfm
How much for total cost of the set up. Tank box etc. ?
MIXON4PRESIDENT $500 for compressor $150 for sand blaster $50 for sand $50 air line regulator filter etc. About $750 total
Nice video. Please buy a proper mask to protect your lungs. You only get one set and this shit will fuck you up. May not seem dusty but it will be in the air. It’s the three things I workshop owners neglect the most. Eyes ears and lungs. I’m not being a boring misery but I suffer with lung condition (unrelated to workshop) and until you struggle you don’t realise how much you take for granted. Keep up the good videos 💪
Thanks for the advice! Really appreciate it and I will from now on 👍🏼
do you think i could fit a complete cr250 motor in there
You could take that motor apart and blast each piece individually but I do NOT recommend blasting an entire engine ever, it would not fit in this blaster anyways.
My bulb went out and its only 6 months old. They do not carry a replacement bulb for this unit
Domino Moody that’s exactly what happened to mine. Learned my lesson these cheap sand blasters are cheap for a reason. I am looking to upgrade now. But i have been sticking some led lights in my box now to still use it and be able to see
Seal up your vacuum better. And you should still use a respirator.
Don’t this guy look like the boy from Bubble Boy! Lol
Definitely heard this before haha
👍🏾👍🏾
Why didn't you just go from 1/2" to 1/4" that's more unnecessary parts
Because I had no f***ing clue what I was doing 👍
So $300 blaster/media/filter + $600 for compressor...
$500 for my compressor but yeh. A small compressor won’t handle the strain.
Dude you left out the costs
I included the links to the products in the video description. They will tall you the prices.
Why on earth do Americans don’t run 240V?
It’s 220v actually
FULL THROTTLE FILMZ I’m in Australia we run 240V
Just try to slow down the "GUYS"
Shit I didn't even notice that haha
11 cfm isn't strong enough most people want to be able to take off anything, paint powder coating, ect. Most people get sticker shock at the price of industrial strength compressors, which is what you need. I started out the same way you are, and I had a compressor that was even stronger than yours (Ingersoll Rand, 18cfm). My compressor wasn't strong enough. I do powder coating and custom hydro dipping with custom film, and by far the prep too way longer than it should've. Between clogged lines, guns, shitty harbor freight everything, it killed the workflow. You need compressor that is too strong to clog. The types of compressor that are truly good, usually cost $2500 or more, can be much more).
