Hey. Great video but i have a question. How do you set this up with your machine? I would love to see how this is actually being used on the machine. I have one that has a big hopper for 25lbs and i would like to switch it to only using these little ones as it looks easy to switch to different colors. If you have a short video explaining how this is hooked up to your machine i would like to see that. Thanks in advance!

@JoshTolbertUrbana 4 года назад

What's the white tubing you're using into the NPT side of the barb fitting? I've tried repeatedly to drill PEX and it's always a chewed-up mess, and your tubing looks a lot more rigid than PEX.

please consider doing a beginner setup instructions video for first time sandblasters and powder coaters. sick video

@UnknownCoatings 4 года назад

With what kind of information?

@accordingtoabe2211 4 года назад

@@UnknownCoatings from the perspective of just getting started. basic setup of compressor to lines, regulators and filters and where they typically should be placed for optimal function/benefit, etc. maybe there isnt a huge demand for setup walkthrough for beginners but the info that DOES exist is vague and all over the place. some bits of info poorly filmed/explained, scattered across different channels, etc.

Thanks bud. Im going to round up parts today. Thanks for the UKC Army group. Great group of folks willing to share advice.

@UnknownCoatings 4 года назад

Glad people are finding use in these videos and the group! I appreciate the support!

@ricklonetti9587 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! In case anyone is cracking the cap when drilling the holes, put duct tape on top and in the inside of the cap. Then drill the holes. Once the holes are drilled, remove the tape.

It seems like the 1/2” barb fittings you were using for the pickup tube is a 1/2” npt and not a 3/4” npt. My 3/4” fittings were too big for my 1/2” PEX tubing

@cliffwalters7701 Год назад

Thank you for sharing. How big are the holes you drilled into the center tube?

When I drill holes in plastic I run the bit backwards. It melts through and it's really clean and there's no risk of cracking.

@JoshTolbertUrbana 4 года назад

@@whitepony007 So I started building one...I found the 1/2" PEX in 5' sections at all of our local big-box stores around here. Now I need to know what thread-size of fittings he ordered for the air inlet. I know the quick-connect side is 1/4", but what is the NPT side he drills and stuffs hose into?

Could someone tell me what those little glass tubes with the powder in them because someone found some and we need to know because last time he found tubes containing concentrated powdered citric acid snd he was going to smash them open we had to call hazardous disposal to dispose of them.

i have no idea, couple inches, I will measure one when i can !

I'll eventually get some going, but any chance your willing to make / sell one for me?

@scottcline4456 3 года назад

Can you tell.me how far off the bottom the outlet tube is. They were out of stock on the 32ounce containers so I used a different brand.

@michaelgreen6927 3 года назад

What the hole spacing on the main tube of the three holes? Also how long do you run the hose from your hopper to gun? How much do you fill up the hopper with powder? Thanks

@UnknownCoatings 3 года назад

nomore than 2/3 of the way full, I dont know the measurements, I can check tomorrow Hoses are 8 foot

@michaelgreen6927 3 года назад

This may be kind of a strange question, but what NPT size are the air inlet fittings you used? I know the QD side is 1/4" OD, but what thread is the other side? Thanks!

@UnknownCoatings 4 года назад

i think 3/8

@JoshTolbertUrbana 4 года назад

@@UnknownCoatings Thanks. I ended up measuring my chewed-up hopper (that used the two-tube, newer-style lid) and went with 1/8" NPT male on the other side. Still need to drill them out, but they seem like they'll be fine.
