You could also try switching to aluminum-oxide (sapphire) as a blast media. It can be used more than glass bead or silica sand before turning into powder. Once your media gets too fine, it will begin to clog as you are experiencing.
It is more expensive, but lasts longer than other media and doesnt have quite the moisture problem. Stu |

I am running aluminum oxide, it works great but picking it up has been my problem.
I'll try some of the suggestions here and see how it works. It has worked great for what I've needed so far but I'd like to expand to bigger/better, maybe even start some side work because I enjoy media blasting so much:) Thanks guys |

I am quite an idiot. I clicked on this thread thinking I'd find information about playing digital media through the stock stereo system. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)
