Yes Jim, that is one of the places. It happens to be on the same route we take to a favorite restaurant. If Rosie finds out I may have to buy her lunch. :lol:

If Rosie finds out, you'll have to find a new favorite restaurant!

Actually, Rosie likes the place too. So if she found out I was going to be near the restaurant I better take her along. I used to eat lunch there once a week when I was working down the street. Now it's whenever we are over that way.

Anyway, I called the place and they have a 40-70 mesh crushed glass similar to what I am now using at $22.50 per 50 pound box. That's $7.50 cheaper than TP plus the shipping savings. I guess, with the money I would save, I would break even after figuring in gas and Rosie's lunch.
 
I looked into aluminum oxide at another supplier. It lasts 5 to 6 times longer and is only twice the price at $45.00 a 50 pound box. The down side is it will wear the nozzle, gun, pick up tube and even vac motor more quickly.

Bill, use one of the blowers, from the dead dryers, you mentioned. Squirrel cage blower, adjacent to the motor. Dust doesn't pass through the motor, like a shop vac. Moves much more air, than a shop vac, too.

Thanks Ray, that is what I am currently using. I am trying to find something compatible (but more economical) that may be sold closer to me.

Thanks for your offer to pick it up also.
