Guys what type of compressor did you use?
Speaking to a blasting media specialist today he reccomended going with a 14 cfm compressor for walnut shell blasting (12 cfm at minimum) which are almost $900 alone, then the blast kit with nozzle is $175, and $100 for a vac...
The prices start to escalate quite quickly when you have to spend that much on a compressor... I was hoping to buy one of those cheap 2HP compressors for $200?
Can you do the blasting at short intervals (10 seconds stop, then wait 10 seconds) with a cheap compressor? And can you just use a domestic vacuum cleaner to suck the shells out?
