Hi Guys,
I've just ordered this :>-
With a bit of luck I should have it by the weekend.
Well my new Grit Blasting Cabinet arrived this morning, so here are some photographs I promised.
GB-26112015-004b.jpg
I've laid all the bits that came with the cabinet inside so that you can see what was included. Only the wall wart transformer for the florescent light is not in the picture because it was plugged in, as can be seen from the light being lit up.
GB-26112015-005.jpg
This is the gun that came with the cabinet. It is very much a common air pistol with an adapter to take a feed tube and venturi screwed onto the end. These air guns seem to be very popular since you can buy them as blasting guns with a cloth bag attachment that replaces the feed tube. Grit is then put into the bag. I've also seen this gun as a water gun and as a solvent tank spray gun.
GB-26112015-008.jpg
The rubber gloves that come with the cabinet are quite thick and have a very coarse griping surface that seems to have been added by dipping in a rubber solution and then chippings before being dipped again. The inside of the gloves is a canvas material.

The lighting arrangement is a low voltage (12V DC) from a wall wart into an inverter inside a metal box mounted on the outside of the cabinet wall. The wall wart simply plugs into a socket on the box and has an on/off switch at the oposite end.

These two pictures are of the exit air filter. It is quite small, only about 100 mm diameter and 50 mm long. The hole in the cabinet wall is a little smaller at 40 mm diameter. Not very big to allow a large volume of air escape.

The cabinet lid is secured by two hinges and two twist latches. It has a substantial foam rubber surround that is compressed when the lid is closed and locked. Also supplied is a pack of six clear film sheets, intended to be replacements for the original one that is attached to the clear PVC lid. A simple manual comes with the kit showing all the parts and suggesting how the cabinet and gun should be used along with air flow and pressure recommendations.
GB-26112015-006a.jpg
There are four ceramic nozzles supplied one fitted and three in a poly bag. All four nozzles are of different sizes from 2 mm diameter to 6 mm diameter.
All in all I am quite pleased with the kit that I have received, especially at the price I paid for it.
