      It's as good as you can get it. The minor surface imperfections can be ameliorated by a quick polish on the buffer.

    Thank you so much for sharing. This vid contributed to my motivation/inspiration to build my own. I just got it up and running 2 days ago and have since been working out kinks...
    I used:
    - Harbor Freight cabinet
    - cheap 3d printed nozzle
    - 1 tube of silicone
    - a cheap pressure regulator
    - 5/8 water hose
    - 3/8 air hose
    - LED waterproof boat lights
    - 5 gallon bucket
    - 1/8 hp Submersible pump that I already had collecting dust
    - 80grit glass bead from Harbor Freight
    I spent $484 on the setup
    My nozzle is supposed to be a 10CFM nozzle however it is at a stalemate with my air compressor. My compressor is a 20CFM compressor at 60psi.
    I have a splitter on my water hose with one hose dedicated to coagulation of the sand and the other hose running to the nozzle. Because of the way it is set up I would say that 30% of the pumped volume makes it to the nozzle the other 70% is applied to coagulation.
    In the bucket my mixture is 75% sand 25% water. At the nozzle it is reversed. It comes out to 25% sand 75% water. I run it at 60psi
    All in all I am EXTREMELY impressed by the unit. Before building it I had a very high expectation for the level of productivity to begin with. With that being said, the machine surpassed my expectations. It is seriously about 2-3 times as fast as I thought it would be.
    I have a small business where I build/rebuild powertrains for Cummins engines. I build/rebuild specific manual transmissions, light-medium duty Cummins engines, fuel injectors and turbos. This vapor blaster is now my number one tool in my inventory. It is absolutely invaluable. When we pull these diesel pistons they are totally covered in carbon/spent diesel particulate. It takes 2-3 hours to clean a set of 6 Cummins pistons by hand and you can't even get them that clean. With the vapor blaster it takes less than 10 minutes and get's them literally perfectly clean. It takes them back to brand new it is just incredible.
    All in all for a Long Block that I sell we have 6 pistons, aluminum rear main housing, and the front aluminum gear housing that we have to clean for each engine. The total cleaning time is about 4-5 hours in total and like I said it doesn't even get that clean. now total cleaning time is about 15-20 minutes for everything and brand new looking.
    Phenomenal investment

    Perfect idea! To always have clear view of what you are doing, put the car windshield viper with some clear water to spray to the viper and to the glass to clean them. Sorry, English is not my native language but I think that you understand what is the idea 🙂

    Looks good. I guess the one question I have is does the cabinet rust very quickly on the inside?

    • @hennybutabi
      @hennybutabi  ปีที่แล้ว

      The cabinet itself not, but the grill does because you blast the paint off. But that is not an issue at all

  • @Akya2120
    @Akya2120 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Does your printed splitting valve use the Venturi effect to pick up the glass beads on the bottom of the tank? It was unclear to me.

    • @hennybutabi
      @hennybutabi  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      One side goes to the nozzle, the other goes back into the bucked to stir up the glass beads. If you don't do that all the glass beads sink to the bottom. Mine can use some imrovement because there is a lot of build up on the sides. Good luck!

    @kevinlewis9151 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    From the video I watched you do most of the work with soap and water and then air blow it dry with the straight air and then put it in a fine glass dry blast at about 90 psi for most of the work, and then use the same fine glass in water at about 27 psi just to polish it to give it the like new shine. Im not trying to correct what you have shown, just suggesting how you might perfect your process to make it come out closer to perfect.

    Do you really need the pump? It seems that if a pickup hose can suck dry media through the gun, that it should also be able to suck up water + media mixture. But I am just discovering vapor blasting so don't know much.
