Carl, Scott and Drew,
Thanks for the heads-up. I just ordered one with the light right
on the Internet. I have wanted one of these for a long time but
the cost always made me hesitate.
My compressor is probably too small but now I have a good reason
to buy a new one. What is the minimum CFM and at what pressure...
that you need to use this thing for individual restoration work.
Where do you get your media other than Eastwood.
Thanks guys

Actually the one on sale is #35604 (or maybe it is another one on
sale)
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/taf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=3
5604
List price $130 - on sale for $65; light for an additional $13.
I believe
that is the larger one that Scott is referring to. It seemed
like a better
deal to me.

Drew:
They are selling it for $99, not $69. I have this cabinet and
have been pleased with its durability and use. I did buy the
internal light that has an external on/off switch. I wouldn't
use it without the light. It indicates it's a bead blast
cabinet, but I've used just about every type of medium in
it with no ill effects. I would go with the larger size next
time, but has served me well so far with my 3 restoration.
