Took a risk and bought a cheap Chinese blasting cabinet off ebay for £50
(Theory being if it turned out to be sh1te id just resell on gumtree as 'rare')
this kind

Anyway turns out its good for the money!

Only had a small amount of Aluminium Oxide to test (from spot blaster) so couldn't do much but seems to work well.

Tested on a bit of tinware and an M501 bracket (ill remove the rubber when I do it properly)

Comes with 4 spare nozzles. Its cheap but cheerful!, just need a bucket of grit now.

Will just sell it on when finished with the bus

For reference I'm using a 50litre aldi compressor, V-Twin type, claimed 12-14cfm (probs bit less)

Seems a 14inch bus wheel will just about fit in
 
that's not bad for 50 quid, i was looking for one a bit ago but all over 150 quid, so got a big triple ply cardboard box from work duct tape and a piece of acrilic in the top works a treat on small bits. just about finished building a pressure pot shot blaster only cost me 30quid for a deadman shot valve http://www.frost.co.uk/search?q=deadman valve and some pipe fittings already had a surplus of old calor bottles.

wanted one to be able to blast underside and running gear more effectively, will post up a pick when i'm done
