Gunsmithing Blasting cabinet

[crumpmd]

For those of you who have bought a blasting cabinet for prep work prior to cerakoting.... which one did you choose?
Is 30inch width enough? Did you get an integral dust collection system? or just use the shop vac.

This is for my hobby shop, and I am saving for a mill so I don't want togo more than 4-500$.

Thanks

Re: Blasting cabinet

I have a free standing unit that's 35x24 outside measurement. I'm not sure what the insude measurment is but I wish is was larger. I can't flip a barreled action with a 24" or larger barrel without opeing the door. I thought it's do the trick.

The next one I buy wil be much larger than I think I might need.
