Portable Sand Blaster FARM SHOP Tools 27-4-38 For objects that are too large to fit into his fuel tank sand blast cabinet, Rich DeVries used an old supplement feeder to build a portable sandblaster that mounts on four small rubber wheels.
The unit's metal cone was originally an old A.O. Smith Harvestore supplement meter and measures 30 in. high and 2 ft. in diameter. He mounted a suction tube, made out of conduit, inside the cone.
To use, DeVries transfers the air-powered blast gun and foot-operated valve from the fuel tank cabinet to the portable model. He mounted quick disconnects on the foot-operated valve and also on the blast gun to make the job easier.
"It really comes in handy. I can roll it anywhere I want and use it outside my shop building," says DeVries.
