Sandblaster part 5

This weekend, I added a third leg, so the sandblaster doesn't have to lay on the ground. The legs are made of some perforated angle stock scraps I had.

The handle will make it easier to wheel around. I found the perfect thing in my junk pile, a lug wrench that doesn't fit any of our cars. good shape, about the right length (I'd have preferred a bit longer).

Next is the plumbing for the air and sand. It will be a little while though, because I'll be using the old galvanized water pipe and fittings that I'm currently taking out of the house. (We're re-piping in copper).

When I'm done I'll post a parts list in case anyone out there wants to make one of their own.

More later
