I agree with Chev4t6 almost anything larger than a blast cabinet is a huge mess.Keep it far away from everything you want to keep clean the dust gets everywhere.I have a blast cabinet with a vacuum that keeps it in control.
Another thing to do is have a very good water separator and filter to keep the air clean.
My local sandblasting guy CMC blasting is faster and cheaper than me doing the big jobs.My rule is if it fit's in my cabinet I will do it the rest is his to do .
To do the big jobs requires industrial equipment .It's faster work's like it is suppose to .Bottom line is you pay for what you get.
