I recently purchased the Medium Blast cabinent from Eastwood and I immediatly upgraded my 2HP 20 gallon CH compressor to a 7HP Porter-Cable 60 gallon single stage (also made by DeVilBiss). I really like this blast cabinent. It has both left and right side doors and a foot valve, which makes long blasting sessions easier. I purchased the Porter-Cable Shop vacuum for dust collection and it was pricey, but well worth the money. My biggest problem with this set up was moisture removal from my compressed air lines. Living in Upstate NY and trying to blast in semi-heated garage in winter was a real headache. :mad: The fix was to place a quality Water separator as close as possible to the blast cabinent and run a short rubber hose to the foot valve.
