Sandblaster Safety and Troubleshooting Tips

[LisaSelk]

Other than play sand, is there any media that we do not allow at the 'Space for any reason?

Here’s some links that were provided on an old thread. Are they all “OK” for us to use?

@JAGMAN

glass beads made for cabinet blasting:

ALC Medium Glass Bead Blasting Abrasive — 25 Lbs.

On the page you linked, it also listed many materials such as walnut shells and aluminum oxide which is probably not traditionally used in that cabinet.

Harbor Freight also carries what appear to be a compatible material:

Northern Tools is a nice place, but they are sometimes inconveniently located depending on where you live.
