After rigging parlor nets in 400 lobster traps I have finally fired up my new blast cabinet
To play for a while. These stummels came out of the bucket of shame to see what a loop
System blaster can do these are by no means finished but please feel free to suggest anything
You might observe
The first two photos was the initial cut with steel media 50 psi for 3min
5min o change media
The last three photos was softer glass bead 65 psi for 6min.

Well, not to rain on your parade or anything, but the detail isn't amazing on those blasts. I'd suggest playing around with psi, nozzle size, and media to get a more detailed result.

Re: Blast cabinet makeover blast off
Yeah, those aren't good. Wrong media, wrong pressure.

See if you can find some that doesn't have such a wide range of grit, and get it toward the higher grit (smaller) range.
Turn the pressure up. Way up.

I think pressure matters more than the exact media, and more than the size of the media.
