The area for and one of the new blast cabinets.

One came in. It's been a clown show all day ... starting with nearly running down a guy coming in as I was going out. Cabinet atop a shopping cart. He grabbed it, I got it straightened out. Went eight more feet, wheel hit a hole in pavement and the cart stopped dead. Cabinet airborne ..... CRASH!!!!!

Yeah some damage. Mostly emotional. Was a rough childho.... Huh .... oh, you mean the cabinet. Cracked glass and bent leg.

Had to clear area. Wow. Boxes from the move. Then install a shelf. Legs, did I say legs? Right - that means the shelf is too high. Or, If I stand on my toes I can just see in the top .....

Fine. I'll fix it.

I need coffee.

Sounds like you came out of it with your sanity at least.

I have bead blasted over the years. We has one at the tool & die shop I worked for. Used it to clean EDM wire machine parts and blast aluminum vacuum molds to get a nice finish.

Your parts will look great and I am sure you will incorporate blasted parts into one of the guns.

Tea time, spend an hour with wife.

The cabinet will be a blast

"it'll be a blast"...sure...

Hi Pedro,

Yeah, well ... I came out. Sanity board is out right now. Thanks for pulling for me. Tonight we are having fiv fiv five fish sticks!

Thinking of you.

Yeah, those childhood things... They can make you feel like your screws are in backward - or loose - haha! I think we all have a few missing. I hope you find all of yours in the new blast cabinet .
Good luck wiff it,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I got it set up and working. Thank God it was assembled cause it took forever after that! Great gobs of joy ...

Anyway. Now I next have to get much better at filtering the room air. The various masks and filters and glasses and headphones can get you into a tangle weed of cords and straps and elastic and make you burst into a fit tearing it all off to breathe......, occasionally. . Don't ask me how I know .....

Lol, I have been there too... Only in a fire department SCBA. Gees it is nice to get that thing off sometimes! Enjoy the new learning procecures.

Half the things you do probably ought to be done under a fume hood of some sort. With all that stuff stacked in the shop surely you've got a spare set of lungs tucked away somewhere, right?
