My Homemade Sandblasting Pressure Pot

Just a warning, this project involves welding on a pressure vessel, something dangerous at the best of times, it is possible that the tank may fail and seriously injure or kill someone. Be careful and be warned.

Hi all, another member asked for more details on my homemade pressure pot sandblaster. Here's a few pics and a shopping list for parts.

Here's an overall pic of the unit, the basic operation is that the tank is pressurized on the top of the tank with a line bringing straight air around to the bottom to help carry the sand from the bottom opening in the tank thru to the nozzle.
