- So I went to Harbor Freight to get some tools and ended up coming home with this NEW Central Machinery Bench Top Blast Cabinet 59477. I've been using it for a few weeks now and finally got around to doing a video covering my install, testing it, replacing a few parts, and using it to work on my car projects!
I think the modifications I did made it much better for using it. Watch this video if you want a full review of my usage after a few projects.

This is great, I've had my eye on this unit and I've been wondering about a lot of what you've covered. I also really appreciate the heads-up on a things to upgrade on this unit, thank you for that!! :)
It's worked pretty well for me so far with those nuances! It's been great for restoring parts before repainting them! Thanks!
Thanks for this review.
You’re welcome!
A good shop-vac with a good filter on it is a great addition to it. Helps with visibility in there and it creates a negative pressure inside the cabinet to keep the media from pushing through the seams and joints. The fixed pick-up tube is kind of a bummer on this one, the stand-alone version has the "stab-stick" type that you can move around. Very handy for denser medias like Silly-Sand, Crushed Glass (my favorite) and Aluminum Oxide. As for the different "grains" in the media, match that with the Tips on your Gun. They are color coded for the Grit Size, but different medias (like Walnut) is actually a lot bigger than say.... Glass Beads of the same Grit (grain size).
Quick Tip on how to un-plug your nozzle on the fly.
Cover the Nozzle with the palm of your hand and pull the trigger. It will back flush it on the quick and get you back to Blasting in seconds.
Also, the medias you can buy at Harbor Freight are EXPENSIVE! I've actually got better deals on it at Automotive Paint & Supply stores, Cement & Mason suppliers & of all places Home Depot & Lowes. It really pays to shop around for that stuff (sometimes nearly half the price of HF).
Thanks for all the tips BareRose. I was hoping you would chime in! I'll have to find some way to improve the bottom pickup. I can see how the way you described the other one working is a better way for picking up the media.
I'll have to check out different places where I can pick up media around me. How often do you suggest I change it? That is one thing that wasn't clear to me from the instructions.
Damn, good review on that
Thanks for the review. I just picked mine up. Right off the bat I had to go to the electronics store for a new light switch. Supplied one was junk, intermittent. No biggie. HF compensated me for that.Tip to getting the (unreachable) nuts inside, that held on the switch housing is to use locking pliers to hold them. Replaced the stiff hose. Will update on my experience when I get the compressor plumbing sorted. :-)
Very cool. I've been really happy with mine after my modifications. I'm looking forward to see how you like your setup!!! Also, good tips.
Awesome video brother. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible weekend. Much love and RESPECT
Thanks Tim!
Great review! I've been wondering how well one of these would be!👍
Thanks Mitch! Definitely happy with my purchase even though I had to make some slight modifications.
Go to the local CV s or whatever pharmacy you got in the neighborhood, get a little power massage. R tape to the back and elaborate that medium to the bottom
That's a great idea. Thanks!
What paint set up did you use for that power steering pump? I just got into Duracoat painting with an airbrush and your paint finish looks really good on that power steering pump.
Thank you for the insight on this video. My choices were down to an Eastwood B20 or this in the video I watched on the Eastwood was not very pleasing. It does not have any silicone at all, nor did it come with silicone and from what I gathered, it was completely disassembled and not all of the holes lined up correctly. Which is a little disappointing coming from Eastwood.
Power steering reservoir*
I just used a can of engine paint. I spent a lot of time preparing the power steering pump to make sure there were no contaminates and all the surfaces were flat. I haven't tried airbrushing, but it is always something I have wanted to!
That is too bad to hear about the Eastwood product. It was nice this product came assembled and sealed. Definitely removes some of the potential quality issues that can pop up!
What size fitting was required to connect the new hose to the blasting gun?
Do you think a 15x7 wheel from a square body chevy would fit into it with enough room to still blast it?
I can take some measurements if you want. I seriously doubt it.
@@SmackeysGarage if you'd be so kind to do so. Total measurements are 16 tall by 7 wide of the wheels.
You’d need a bigger cabinet I’d think. I went and checked measurements. If by some way you can get it in you’ll never be able to maneuver it
What's the square vent for on the back? Is that supposed to be capped??
I believe it is the vent. With it being sealed, the air needs a place to escape. It probably has that torturous path to keep as much sand inside as possible.
Can you get a parts list?
Of the cabinet? There is one in the manual. It’s more of a diagram. Or of the parts I purchased? (Those are in the description)
Thank you Smackey, I did see that. I appreciate it.@@SmackeysGarage
How many cfm@90psi was your compressor?
10. It works well. I’m not continuously holding my hand down on the blaster so it is keeping up.
