Here's a brand new Step By Step demonstrating how you can make your own homemade sandblasting booth. Thanks for sending this in Bob.

That's Cool.

Thanks Bob for going through all the work to make that Step-by-step.

That is SO COOL! It has "Bob" written all over it!

I have to share with you...

The World According to Bob: my father-out-law is named Bob and I believe he subscribes to same creative thinking that you do. Have you seen his Snow Plow? LOL (ask for the picture via e-mail... I'm pic post challanged still)

The Art of Bob: Mom-out-law found these T-shirts in some comedy catalog that had "The art of Bob" on it with paint drips and swirls splashed about it. Looks just like one of his shirts after he has painted a car, or a house, or a tree... (nothing is safe when he has a brush or can in hand! ) I'm sure we ALL could contribute to that idea... look at Duckie's clothing line for example!

I'm going to go show my Bob this Bob's Step-by-step right now and I'll lay odds that I'll either have one next week (that "he can use too") OR he's gonna get competitive and build me something stranger, bigger, and definately louder... stay tuned.

The "Bob's Daughter" side of the Moon (They have T-shirts that say that too in that catalog!)

Dood!

Bob, you rock man! Wish I would have done one like that instead of buying one a harbor freight.

Thanks!

Thanks for the step-by-step. I've been wanting to make something to etch my glass stuff in. Think I might just do that!

Thanks Bob

Great set up on the (Blaster Unit!)

Nice to see another Nova Scotian on board!
Any pictures of your projects?

Do you know Dan Baltzer?
One of the finest sandblast tradesman I have ever seen. Quality Workmanship

Atta go Art! you start blasting people on your 1st post!

When you've been around a little longer, you will find out that Joey "tells it like it is"! He also has a website that has more information than you will ever absorb, plus he will help out anyone that asks!

Maybe in time you and your friend will have a little more couth!

Posted by The Moon (Member # 452) on :

E-fricking-nough ALREADY!

I've kept quiet while ya'all are having your ****en contests here ALL freaking winter... reading over or past the stick poking and the flaming and the endless whineing, but sheesh! Enough is fricken ENOUGH! Come on guys?

I for one am tired of seeing it on dang near EVERY post.

It's all right up there... we ALL can see who started it, who reacted, and who kept it going.

The now commenting and fed up side the blasted Moon

Posted by Steve Shortreed (Member # 436) on :

Sorry Si. Most of the time I find this "telling it like it is"..."shooting from the hip" stuff to be nothing more than rudeness. I like Joey and realize he is not feeling well, but that is no excuse to try and belittle Bob's Step By Step.

Can you imagine the fireworks if the shoe was on the other foot?

I'm in the process of re-writing the Law Of Letterville in an attempt to stop what Stef and so many others are fed-up with. Here's a sample...

Any post that intentionally and maliciously attacks any user(s), or prompts another user to attack back, will be removed.

Any post that intentionally and maliciously insults or degrades any user(s) will be removed. If you see such a post, DO NOT RESPOND TO IT. Getting attention, good or bad, is the the goal of the poster... therefore, a simple solution is to IGNORE that post(er). Send us an email to steve@letterhead.com to alert us of any problems in this area, or you can simply wait until we become aware of the post via other means. In any case, We WILL remove that post sooner or later. But again, DO NOT REPLY TO SUCH POSTS.

Thanks, Steve, for the referral to Bob's step-by-step. I think it is a great idea, and I'm going to make one of those (or rather, my husband will make one for me).

Thanks, Bob....this has been posted very timely for me.

Posted by Stephen Deveau (Member # 1305) on :

I truly think it's a nice ideal tub for small work to do items In House!

Glad to see help projects!

Thanks again.

Posted by AZBrad (Member # 1351) on :

Great step by step. Thanks for sharing!

How can an informative, cool, creative post like this go BAD?

This really makes me want to spend the time to
do a step by step!

Please use your brain before you post!

Posted by Santo (Member # 411) on :

I'm going to bump this up because, I saw that Steve has it on the Step-By-Step page. I thought it was a good example of ingenuity and still do.
I don't want to fan any cooling flames, but there is something to be considered.
Remember, that if you are attempting this, you may not know the limitations of the system you just built. It most certainly will not be completely sealed, and you possiblly could be using it in your home and around your family.
There can be some health risks to blasting as pointed out in another post.
I will reply again to that post to temporarily tie the two together.

Steve, is ther a way reference 1 post from another in this forum?

Check the sandblasting thread for safety issues Santo is referring to.
