My wife bought me a fairly large sandblast cabinet at a yardsale for $50.00. Exactly like the big standup unit HF sells. She went to Sears and bought me a new 6 HP compressor. This setup works great for parts. I sandblasted my 235 valve cover. She polished the raised lettering "Chevrolet" and taped it off. I painted it old chevy blue then removed the tape and clear coated it. it looks pretty neat. We used high temp paint. Be to get the carbide nozzles they last alot longer than the ceramic. We went through a bunch of ceramic ones with our 66 stang restoration and carbide is the way to go.
