I would add a large moisture trap after the air compressor to prevent moisture from getting in the sand. A concrete vibrator attached to the side of that tank to prevent sand clogging would be a last perfect touch.
Muy buena explicación maestro, Faltó recalcar que el pistón de caliper lleva lado, los orificios que lleva va encajando con la pastilla interna y el seguro externo quedó mal encajado.. pero excelente mantenimiento que le hizo👍🏼
🤦🏻♂️ brutal, Maestro! Para los emprendedores, obreros independientes, eso es jamón crudo! 🤪 Intentaré copiárselo. ¿Con cuántos kilos de presión trabaja? Le agradezco 🙇🏻♂️ la bondad de compartirlo! 🫵🏼 Honraré eso. Desde Montevideo, Uruguay 🇺🇾, le saludo afectuosamente
Hye can this tank operate directly from the air compressor how about the capacity? Or this tank needs a release valve. Because im affraid this tank will explode? Can you answer? Btw you are great. ❤
Nice build. How much air pressure do you feed it and what does the top gauge read when you are using it? Every shop needs a media blaster... Thumbs Up!
Great project. Terrific execution! Two questions though. How high is the tank pressure and second, what are the minimum compressor specs for hobby use? Thanks
Just search up some hobby equipment that you can buy online and check the specs on them👍 also test the tank for leaks at 0.02 bar first, then follow up with slowly adding pressure until the tank has reached the pressure that you'll will use it with. (Have a long hose attached to tank, then a barometer followed by a closing valve with a airhose connection so you connect the aircompressor with. After filling 0.02 bar, if the pressure drops use a heavy soap mix with a spraybottle and cover the tank to check where the leak is, then fix it, rinse repeat. When it isn't leaking, then you can slowly start building pressure half a bar at a time while give time between for the tank to adjust to given pressure. When desired bar is reached, close it off and leave it over night somewhere safe, that way you'll be absolutely sure that it isn't leaking and that it can maintain the pressure over a longer time. Side note; when filling it, it will drop a tiny bit depending on the size of tank because of pressure filling every nook and leveling out, so just top it off when you see the pressure has leveled out.) Also make sure the tank that you modify is rated for the pressure you intend on using it with, depending on the pressure the walls needs to be made "so & so" thick, and that's not something you'll be able to modify.
About to build this exact design ,the only thing I'm going to change is to have a lance so I'm further away from the work piece when using the blaster .
I always use an additional compensator connected to the tank, 200 liters, no more than 10 bar for this barrel, because more can be dangerous, you need a pizza tank.
, niżej jest odpowiedź że ma kompresor 200 L , i ciśnienie nie wieksze jak 10bar ,jeśli dobrze wyczytałem, mniejszym kompresorem pewnie też się da pracować
Hi there, Some FAQ I have and find in the comment section: Is the tank all you really need to sand blast, like do you fill it with both sand and air or do you still need a separate compressor connected with the tank, is the black cable with the wrapped tape connected with the compressor? If so what kind of compressor? A simple tire compressor to fill up the tank while you’re blasting? If so do you fill the tank after the pressure dropped to a certain point or is it constantly on? Or a big compressor with capacity tank? If so how many liters should the tank of compressor be and how many liters/minute should it blast minimum? Kind regards, Manu

@carchiklife Could you make a video or a short where you try it without compressor, so just filling the tank to see if it would work without and if so, how long you can blast until it runs out of air pressure and how long it would take to fill it back up with a portable 150 Watt compressor… to know if it is worth for some people including myself to invest in a compressor with tank as well. And if a compressor is really needed, what kind of compressor would be sufficient? I found a 24L compressor with tank €120 with max 10 bar with 260L/min be good enough? What about a 50 L compressor €300 with 412L/min? Because in my specific case I would want to sandblast balconies and other structures that aren’t dismountable so I would have to carry it with me on staircases to different locations…
I think this is a great example. Great size for my needs, and the ceramics scavenged the bomb. But yeh, thin wall on that perfectly sized tank. I'd go for a steal CO2 tank or similar. Good vid qualit, too.
Muy lindo. Lo que no muestra es con la presión que trabaja. En ningún momento muestra.. eso es porque se trabaja con un compresor superior a los 120 lts.. de igual forma está bueno
Sorry, but i got containers like that.. They contain hélium for ballon.. And the thickness of them is not so much than butane bottles..Yes, may be, it would be possible to weld better...
Великолепно только нужен компрессор литров на 500 чтоб это чудо работало, у этого баллончика толщина стенки милеметр или чуть толще, покажи в реальном времени как оно работает
