    Anybody have a media blasting cabinet in eastern Mass.?

    Does anyone have a blasting cabinet in eastern Mass. they'd be willing to let me use? I'll supply media and, of course, beer (and even money for your time if need be.)

    I have a couple of parts to blast from the El Camino and it's not worth me buying a cabinet, or paying a pro to do it. I work in Waltham and live in Bedford, but I'll travel...

    If you can wait a couple weeks I have one in Pawtucket RI. I am recovering from back surgery. I am not even driving yet, I think a trip to the shop right now might land me in the doghouse.

    That would be great - I'm not in a hurry. I don't have a heated garage and it's too cold to work outside!

    The air bits and gloves came in this week. I just have to build the door and fit the glass window on it, route the air, and then fill'er up with media. Hoping to hell it works!

    Mike,

    Let me know when you are back up and about. I was wondering about the Facebook photos of you in a hospital bed thought you may have had a bad bout with the flu. It would be great to come down to catch up with you and the fam.

    Would your cabinet fit an entire dirtbike frame inside it? I have an older dirtbike that I have been hemming and hawing about whether I should strip and paint or not. If it can be blasted relatively easily it makes my decision very easy.

    Hope you feel better soon!

    Joel

    As long as the subframe is separate it should fit. They claim a v8 engine block will fit.

    It would be great to catch up Joel. I haven't been around much lately. I guess that is part of the price for moving to RI.
