    It looks like yours is like a wet version of the normal suction type dry blasters. Is my interpretation correct?
    That would mean that you pre-mix the abrasive and water slurry, what proportions have you found to work best? What blast media do you use, glass beads or something more aggressive?
    Do you do anything with the used slurry to separate out the dust from still usable media?
    I guess that you don't need an extractor system but does the slurry tend to find its way out anywhere?
    I have been thinking of modifying my dry cabinet to a wet one, which explains my interest in yours.

    What is the dirt bike in the back ground of one of the pix.?
    Yup, I'm with Tony. The pics are great but while it all makes sense to the OP, there are a ton of questions on the details. A while back a member took a run at building a wet blast cab and while he got the cab done, he had surgery and hasn't posted any progress about details of how to make it work since.
