7:17 you are welcome for the coffee ☕🤘🏻😎
Five years of use for that machine? That sounds like good value! Looking at all the stuff you've blasted, I'm impressed with the effectiveness of this system.
These sandblasting videos are satisfying in themselves, but you must feel doubly so actually blasting your projects clean.
A nice thing about Arizona...to me anyway...was that things don't seem to rust instantly as they can here.
Geez...I can't believe it's SEMA time again. After COVID-19, it's a blessing to just sit an watch TH-cam videos of the whole spectacle. Have a safe trip there and back again! Aloha.
It proved itself very well!! Its so nice to see the clean slate left behind, we will get the rest done when were back from sema!
Hi Angel I saw this last night and when I tried to comment it wouldn’t let me. Sandblasters are actually pretty tough. I imagine if one didn’t rust out or get blown out somehow it would last a long time. Till you couldn’t get repair parts. Nice blasting job! Great explanation on everything. When blasting you always find every spot you missed getting suited up, cause you get sand there. Have a great day stay cool
Right! There was an issue with yesterday’s upload, so we had to repost again
Thansk for the mention, for anyone pulling the trigger on this unit, harbor freight has upgraded their units and the grey 110lbs unit now come with a deadman handheld valve vs the handheld ball valve wich still comes in the new grey 20lbs unit, you can also find the older blasters on marketplace for 50$ or even cheaper, defenatly worth the buy
You are not kidding about blasting media getting everywhere. I wear an Insulin pump and anytime I sand blast I take it off and put tape over the infusion set it connects to. I will never risk getting sand/inside either and causing problems or a malfunction. I have a project next summer after winter is over and I’ll be using my Craftsman gravity feed blaster , I have probably owned it for 30 years ( not used regularly )and it has its glitches too. Thanks for sharing 😊
I've had one these HF blasters for about 12 years. It gets the job done, although not without a few initial problems and minor improvements. As you mentioned, the blast nozzle is a pain, so I wound up replacing it with a Deadman. Also, I had to replace the moisture trap almost immediately with a quality unit from IR. The other recommendation is to make sure your compressor's line oiler is shut off or bypassed because that will mess up everything! An in-line water trap/filter-dryer off the compressor is also recommended but optional. And PPE is everything bc the media will find bodily cracks and crevices that you didn't even know you had!
I have used the little 40lb blaster with a few different media on about 20-25 cars and it does a nice job, but remember it's an HF tool that needs a little love every now and then. Shit wears out... But there's nothing quite like the Zen of watching the paint and rust magically vanish!
This was the best video that explains how to use a 40 lbs. sandblaster!, thanks for posting it, very helpful to me. I give you a thumbs up and subscribe to your channel too.

Another nice video chief. Very informative.

GOOD JOB!....................................................GO TUMP GO!
I did the same thing but I pulled the tarp up on the sides to contain it.
I went down the sandblasting rabbit hole. I used bagged sand from the hardware store. With that sifter you could just visit the local playground
You used a playground sifter?? 😂
I stole it from my neighbor. The plastic was faded and the handle was already cracked.😈
It would be great to pull my engine and sand blast the engine bay and paint it this winter. You think I can do this in a garage, or does it need to be done outside?
Hey , if it`s working good enough for what you`re doing it`s worth it. Sure looks mess. I`ve never done that.
Id recommend trying it, so youll never want to do it again.. 😂
Two days in a row?
If you are speaking of the uploads, we uploaded yesterday but noticed it was missing the last minute of the video! So we uploaded the full vid again
@@rookie__pilotwondered lol
👍
Hey, how about priming the hose into a bucket?
Smart! But the pressure once its clear will blast everything out of that bucket 😂
@rookie__pilot oh... 😅
🙌 Have you decided to do a full restoration or keep it as a Scrapstang?😄 Turn it into a truck😳
I am currrently rebuilding a 68 mustang and needing a full wiring harness for it. I know you haven’t completely finished it yet but Would you recommend that speedway one for it?
Used a sandblaster at a company that reconditioned foundry nozzles.
I get home and I'm coughing up black sh*t.
Yes yes 😂
This is my kind of folly 🤓
👊👍
