I have a small one but can’t get gloves for it. Take a look at Eastwood to get some ideas but essentially a box with a really good sealing door, glass panel to see what’s going on and holes for gloved hands to hold blaster and part. A light in side is nice, and you need a way to collect the media. Most use a siphon type pickup. If you let the media sit for awhile it works better after it’s been sifted and heated up to get rid of the trash and moister. If you use “glass beads” be real careful they get into everything. Pets, kids, spouses, no one likes the glass in their feet. I use the big cabinet at Ft Bevier’s auto hobby center, nice benefit for prior service.
