sand blast cabnet

[Jim Becker]

I used a bunch of PVC water pipe. When I needed to redo some of it, I found the part nearest the compressor was very brittle. The rest was pretty good still. My conclusion, right or wrong, was the compressor oil that had made it down the line was the source of the deterioration.

When I redid things, I used a hose (from Northern) to run the length of the barn. The rest was done in copper. No PVC in there now!

Rick"aka Redman" Neuman inherited a lot of talent from his Dad "Elmer". This is one of those brilliant projects that come along from time to time and really raise the bar for HomeBrew Fabrication projects. He really put a lot of time and thought into it. Well done.. marvelous work.
