Blasting pot

[garethp]

I'm sure Bob's will be the best deal, but that machine mart one can be had a lot cheaper elsewhere.

Check eBay for ones that are identical, just not sold by machine mart...

Mine is an ebay clone at half the price, I've changed the grit valve pipework for bigger sizes and put a tungsten nozzle on it. Works great with 2x 3hp belt drive compressors but I need to cool the air to stop condensation carry over when blasting for a while.

Grit currently costs between £4 - £5 for 25kg bags depending if its crushed glass or copper slag.

fit a secondary tank next to the pot on the end of your line its cheap and works a treat

I have bought this blast pot
A donation to marie curie secured the deal
It is always nice to be nice

Looks like a Hodge Clemco? Looks pucker gear anyway. Be dead right for Debs peeling the spuds.

Its on the never ending list of jobs

I was going to make a cooler from copper pipe but im now thinking of an inverted 45kg propane bottle, if I use the right fittings I'll be able to have air in/out and a drain valve.
