I've seen it posted somewhere recently, a photo of a homemade blasting booth made from wood. It was a free standing unit with a compressor and pressure pot underneath the blasting chamber. I can't remember where I saw it, maybe here. If someone here could lead me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
I intend to do some small pieces and would like to blast them indoors.

I don't know if you have the materials already but I thought about building one too. But, when I added the time and materials, I decided it would be just about as cheap to buy one. I don't know if you have one by your house but I bought mine at a place called Harbor Freight
ebay has some right now for $124.00 I don't know how much the shipping is. By the time you buy, wood, glass, hoses, gloves, fittings etc, you are there aleady.

Hi Mike. There's a really good Step-By-Step instructional reference on how to build one of these units, by fellow Letterhead Bob Hines.
It's at:http://www.letterville.com/steps/hines/
Hope this helps you out.

Thanks folks. I do have materials left over from cut drops and had planned to use them. Still looking for good ideas to incorporate into the design.
