Being a CSOB when I needed a blast cabinet I went to HF. I figured how bad can it be? Well it seemed to work ok at first, then I started having problems with the media tube floating up, pulsing and generally not working well.

I switch between Black Beauty coal slag and glass beads and had the problem with both

I switched blast guns with another but no change. then after some research and seeing a different type of media tube that was a double barrel instead of a tube inside a tube. I bought one from TP tools. That solved my problem.

I used the 12" tube they offer and made the standoffs to angle it into the little square at the bottom. this is with the table top model.

I was just screening the glass beads and had the cabinet empty so I thought I would take some pics... Not much to see when its full of media.

BTW you do need to put extra sealant on all the seams of these cabinets or it will leak like a sieve.
