    Sandblast support bars

    When media blasting it is best to have what ever is being blasted supported away from the surface
    Here are my support bars for my media blast booth

    If you have ever seen loose femicommunist mammary glands then you know why a Man with sensibilities about appearance invented the over shoulder boulder holder.

    ummm, not always...but when they are and holder fails, it's two dinner plates in a pillow case.

    Now, back to our regular programming.

    There was a compound reason I made and put the bars in the booth. First and foremost, to have a smaller surface contact area of the parts being cleaned.
    Secondly, by having the parts elevated from the bottom of the booth this allows the media a clear pathway around the parts to fall into the collection trough.

    Must make it easier loading and unloading larger parts as well I would think. I made a table out of square tube, angle iron and open mesh treadwalk that does essentially the same thing but for smaller stuff. All breaks apart for storage on a couple of nails hammered into a roof cross brace.
    Handy for painting multiple small items at once as well.

    It's said, one picture equals one thousand (or ten thousand, depending on who is asked) words.
    I like both. Diagrams and pictures do one thing, but a couple words "breaks apart for storage" has me thinking about lap joints, getting the box to decently circulate media.
    Such a great website, thanking each contributor, as terrific mentors.
